Such an old-world flower deserved an old-world feel hence the grunge filter. Ah yes, I do like the filter-fun the iPhone allows one to have (an understatement some would say, lol).
Seldom do I take a photo of an iris that I like but with the simply addition of a filter, I’m fine.
Coffee fuels my photography! 
Love this! It really captures the essence of an iris in a cool impressionistic way.

Thank you – the purple iris will forever be in my heart as the flower that marked the safe arrival of my son as Hubby brought in a big bunch in a yellow vase in celebration!
