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

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
