Francelle,
City Lights, like Clarence, is considered to be an exemplar of the "Zonal"
pattern. You can learn more about this pattern and see view photos of more
zonal irises by visiting the HIPS website at http://www.worldiris.com
Scroll down the main menu and click on "Zonal Project" in the right hand
column.
