After some googling, this turned out to be a Siberian iris (I thought it was Japanese at first but I know so little about the flowers and mostly rely on what I hear either from my neighbors or parents when they come to visit).

Very nice colors and composition; I like how that petal is coming right at the viewer.

This is just perfect and I love the balance of the soft DOF, against the focused area.....

Excellent patterns -- both the off-white in focus area in the lower left petal and the various out of focus purple petals. Very beautiful.

Anna! How beautiful! You have so expertly combined dreamy and soft with sharp and crisp. The lines and shape give this almost an abstract feel. It is so pretty!

Another gorgeous shot. That lens does a fabulous job on focus and detail. I've got some Irises coming in right now. Maybe this weekend I'll shoot a few for the side challenge.
