My blue daylilies when photographed all look washed out mud colored. Anyone else have this problem?

Actually the iPhone 6 series has a pretty decent camera which I believe has been passed on to the newer iPhone 5s. The real trick is to practice. Take a lot of photos of the same daylily in the same light and try making one step adjustments in whatever settings are available to you. Setting the ISO to a low value (50 or 100) will require slower shutter speeds and so a more steady hand, or larger f stops (smaller numbers, f 2.6 is larger than f 4) which has the added value of reducing your "depth of field." That means that your background will be more out of focus.

If nothing else have fun and relax when you take pictures. Look at the scene you are taking and not at your screen.

I’d rather have questions that can’t be answered than answers that can’t be questioned.
