Around three years ago, I had the privilege of visiting the gloriously green hills and wondrously winding roads of rural Tuscany to document the growth, harvest and production of Weleda’s biodynamic iris flowers. I hear there are tougher jobs out there.

Until the other day, I thought I’d lost these shots forever, which makes sharing them now all the more special.

Self-critical footnote: Looking back, I’m not particularly keen on these edits at all, but the photographs are still a wonderful reminder of the beauty and majesty of the region’s myriad luscious landscapes.
