Are we looking through a loop here?
Janichsan is correct -- it's my rimless glasses, which I had set down on my glass computer workstation. I noticed how the rims picked up the colors from the computer monitor and my desktop wallpaper, so grabbed the iPhone and took a few shots, which I later took into DXO PhotoLab 6 and did some editing, with a stop in Topaz AI and then further tinkering done in Luminar AI. It was while I was in Topaz AI that I got the idea for cropping the image more than I initially had done, and found that it made a difference that I liked.
 
A year ago today my wife and I were in a car collision that has continued (and evidently will continue) to change our lives. I considered posting a pic of the car post-accident (other photos about it wouldn’t be gruesome, but would be a tiny bit gross), but I’ve decided against it for this year.

Instead, here’s a picture of a flower:

I took this on San Juan Island, north of Seattle and right near the Canada-US water border, with my OG Canon EOS Digital Rebel.
I watch British crime dramas - so I have seen gross.

Wow, 3 tools to take the photo through.

Yes, I often crop as well. Not that I 'cannot compose' a photo, but taking photos with an iPhone isn't that easy with the lack of a view finder. For me, that is.
