Nothing delicate about this...

Patersonia (native iris) flowers are a wonderful bright purple and then they turn into this marvelously abstract-looking structure...

I googled to see what the fresh flower looks like. It is beautiful and it doesn’t seem to have any resemblance to either of the iris I am used to (Flag iris and Bearded Iris). Love your wabi sabi capture with the warm golden tones.

I was curious how the flower looked when bloomed so I googled it as well. It is a beautiful flower. So different than what it turns into. Nice shot.

I'd never really noticed these before - it seems an amazingly complicated thing to have come from that simple purple flower..... :)
