Star-crossed lovers, or two sweethearts intertwined?

I photographed this series in the later afternoon as the light continued to change, and from different angles. I initially was drawn to this pair because they were apart from the larger clumps and the focus could be just on two.

I loved the way the shadow of the flowers mimicked the shape of the grooves on the lower right side of the rock. I also liked how the orange leaves and colors in the rock corresponded to the color of the anthers.

Colchicum x agrippinum, family Colchicaceae, not a crocus (family Iridaceae) as I discovered after further research.

Unity with Nature: a crab spider, a Matilija poppy, and I.

A bee stopped by for only a few seconds, escaping the advancing spider and too quickly for me to capture the encounter.

These were with my longer macro lens (135mm), which is sharp but doesn't focus as closely as my 105mm, so I needed to crop to see the spider in more detail. Just as well that I couldn't get too close with the camera, so the spider stayed somewhat out in the open.

Some ducks, Canada Geese, and a couple of pigeons from last week - at a park in Eugene, Oregon, USA. The birds are free to come and go - not caged. Unfortunately people feed them, despite the signs indicating not to do so.

Douglas Irises and a small (~1.5" or 4cm diameter) wild rose.
May 19, 2026, Hendricks Park, Eugene, OR USA.

The irises were in the native plant garden area of the park. I thought that they were Douglas Iris, but wasn't sure if I remembered correctly. While I was there, I searched online on my phone. When I clicked on one of the entries/results, what came up was my own Facebook post with a photo from 2024 that indeed identified them as such! It made me wonder if any other people have come across my posts by doing a general online search for certain flowers.
