Awesome! Just lovely.

thanks Iggy:)

Wonderful image, Bambi. The contrasting colours, the cripsness of the subject and the complimentary bokeh, super shot!

Beautiful!!!

thanks everyone for the comments.

Nice shot bambi - dig the colour contrast here!

Very nice shot Bambi. The softness (yet still in focus) suits the pastel colours well.

thanks Marko and MA

Nice picture, I like pictures a bit warmer tho, but its just me

I'm tickled with how the petals rolled into ovals make up a completely round globe. Lovely soft color and texture.

This image is STUNNING!! I just love it!

thanks Q1 and Duane

Everyone says photographing flowers is not really photography since it's an easy thing to do, but this just makes me rethink that statement.

Gorgeous image.

thanks Scot. I would say that photographing flowers is hard- getting the right light, dof, background, no distractions, no clipping......

Wow B...nicely done! You and Iggy have been having a good time with the dahlias this year!

thanks C. yes it's been fun. :)
