Flip UIImage Along Either Axis

Question

I'm trying to create a method which flips a UIImage along the X axis, Y axis, or both. I keep getting close but my transform knowledge isn't good enough to get all the way there. Here is the code I have so far:

- (UIImage *)flippedImageByAxis:(MVImageFlip)axis{
     UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(self.size);
     CGContextRef context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();
     CGAffineTransform verticalFlip = CGAffineTransformMake(1, 0, 0, -1, 0, self.size.height);
     CGAffineTransform horizFlip = CGAffineTransformMake(-1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, self.size.width, 0.0);

     if(axis == MVImageFlipXAxis || axis == MVImageFlipXAxisAndYAxis)
         CGContextConcatCTM(context, horizFlip);
     if(axis == MVImageFlipYAxis || axis == MVImageFlipXAxisAndYAxis)
         CGContextConcatCTM(context, verticalFlip);

     CGContextDrawImage(context, CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, self.size.width, self.size.height), [self CGImage]);

     UIImage *flipedImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
     UIGraphicsEndImageContext();

     return flipedImage;
 }

This flips the image but not properly. The Y-flipped image doesn't get flipped at all, the X flipped image looks like the XY image should look like, and the XY image looks like what the Y image should look like. Combining the transforms and getting them to work properly is making my head hurt.

The MVImageFlip enum is just the three you see in the code. Nothing special.

I finally was able to figure this out. Here is the code that works for anyone else who might need it.

- (UIImage *)flippedImageByAxis:(MVImageFlip)axis{
    UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(self.size);
    CGContextRef context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();

    if(axis == MVImageFlipXAxis){
        // Do nothing, X is flipped normally in a Core Graphics Context
    } else if(axis == MVImageFlipYAxis){
        // fix X axis
        CGContextTranslateCTM(context, 0, self.size.height);
        CGContextScaleCTM(context, 1.0f, -1.0f);

        // then flip Y axis
        CGContextTranslateCTM(context, self.size.width, 0);
        CGContextScaleCTM(context, -1.0f, 1.0f);
    } else if(axis == MVImageFlipXAxisAndYAxis){
        // just flip Y
        CGContextTranslateCTM(context, self.size.width, 0);
        CGContextScaleCTM(context, -1.0f, 1.0f);
    }

    CGContextDrawImage(context, CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, self.size.width, self.size.height), [self CGImage]);

    UIImage *flipedImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
    UIGraphicsEndImageContext();

    return flipedImage;
}
