Stuart, this looks like its straight from the camera, did you do anything OOTB to it? It's a lovely iris.
Stuart, Absolutely beautiful colors to this! The iris fairly pops off the page. If you can, it would be nice to have more space at the bottom so that lowest petal has some breathing room. You could also trim just a bit off the top. I like the band of oranges there but they do distract me from the iris, and by trimming just some away it removes the total mass of the color and puts it into more of a bkgd color that nicely fades behind the iris.
Lovely image Stuart, with the bold complimentary colors and texture. We would love it if you would share your processing thoughts with your posts.

This is a gorgeous iris. Fabulous colors. Beautiful curving petals. The flower seems to be nodding at me. I see that you added some texture. I wish the lighter tones in the background were darker, so as not to pull my attention away from the flower.
I, too, wondered about PP. Looks like a straight photo, though a good one. My first thought was that there should be some canvas at the bottom.
