The image is a close-up of a purple iris flower bud. The bud is in the center of the image, with its petals spread out in a star-like shape. The petals are a deep purple color with hints of yellow and white, and the center is a lighter shade of purple. The flower is surrounded by green leaves, and there is a shadow of the flower on the ground next to it. The background is blurred, but it appears to be a concrete surface.
