Dramatic difference, Gary. I posted a
similar comparison of a dark blue-violet/medium purple seedling probably
a couple of years ago, by now. By the way, is this a seedling that
you just posted the photo of? It's a good-looking flower. --

Griff - Sun
or no Sun - that is the question - on an overcast day the colors are
definitely more intense and a noticeable difference when the bright sun is
one them - some of my light blues look white in the bright sun . attached is
a pick of an example like yours - 3 hrs between pics - early morning before
the sun cleared the top of the trees around 8 o'clock- sun pic around 11 .
big difference . I prefer to take pics on the over cast days or early
morning / late evening . But for description purposes I guess it would be
your choice .

For those who still wonder how much difference
it makes whether you take your photo with or without direct sunlight,
here are two photos of the same seedling taken moments apart
-- the first without sun, the second with. Imagine the
difference in color description if one were to register this flower
twice -- once with sun and once without. So, should one
register an iris according to the colors seen without sun -- or
with sun? -- Griff
