An unusual view and its working beautifully. The centre is really interesting and there is a variety of colours there. I like your angle. The focus is clear and gives a bright result with sharp petal divisions almost to macro level. A fine and enjoyable presentation. .

What a beautiful image if this Dahlia Pat. The close point of view shows the unique beauty of this flower. The focus and colors are so soothing to the eye.

Your artistic rendition is what sets this apart from the ordinary flower photo.

Very well done Pat ~ Steve

This red petaled dahlia is so lovely a flower. I have to make sure I plant some next season!
Your attention to the heart of this blossom is very nice. Focus is perfect, lighting good and the fine details are worthy of capture. Love it.

I love the contrast in this!!! The red feels so deep and pulls you in to the center of the flower. The detail in this photograph is lovely! Great job and good luck:)))

A beautiful blossom and a very fine close up of the opening petals. The detail is abundant and the colors could not be better. A treat to start off the week with something like this.

Beautiful shot here Pat! This is a favorite of mine too. The colour is so rich, nice for fall. I like how the center uncurls itself, so gracefully. The composition is nicely filled and the details are great. Well done
