Another quick one today. This dahlia just says to me the summer is over and autumn is coming. I'm always amazed at how many petals make up a dahlia flower. Mother nature is pretty impressive!
Thanks for all of your comments. Normal service will be resumed at the weekend.
Arrgh, noooo: vade retro dhalias! This is the exact variety that makes me think of those underwater slimy creatures. Brrr, it moves... I can see those tentacular petals moving! Yes, I can see it! Told ya I had a thing against Dahlia. ;)
LOL to eliane - I have some photos of these underwater creatures from my recent aquarium visit - i'll have to post some coming up... i don't have any that look quite as beautiful as your photo here though, nice work!
That's a magnificent photo. Love the yellow. I see so many shot like this that blitz the colour and loose the fine detailing. The enlarged shot is exceptional. Very well done.

Pretty and impressive, both the flower and your work!
That is a lot of petals...beautiful closeup.

Wow..what a refreshing shot to cheer up a gloomy afternoon :)
Thanks for sharing!
Wow Marley, that just pops! Yes, Mother Nature is truly impressive!

Marley, you have quite a talent for floral shots. I try closeups, and most of them turn out crap. You're inspiring me to keep trying.
It looks more like....[google the spelling]....chrysanthemum. :-)
But then again, I'm not a flower expert.
