On Sun. I went to J.C. Raulston Arboretum in Raleigh, NC. It is part of NC State University. These images are of the Gloriosa lily. It is a tropical plant orginally from India or Asia. It is considered an invasive weed in Australia. The image on the right is as taken with no post processing. Camera+ HDR mode. The iPhone does not have RAW image capabilty. The flowers were in a shaded area but there was bright sun.in the area. I did not see the foliage with blue cast and did not think about changing the WB to shade. So when I viewed the image on the computer I felt it was too blue. On the left image I increased the mid tones, and then selected color variations and decreased the blue by 2 and increased the red by 1. When I tried to sharpen or apply a vignette the stamens got pixelated. So, I omitted that change. I posted the left imaged to FB Photo Nuts Group.
