Description
Captured back on 7/14/07, early on an overcast morning, I know not where, but definitely not in a botanical garden.
Much better viewed full size.
While perusing my older photos, I came upon a long forgotten folder of dahlias, which included these four beauties.
Because I am flora challenged, all I can say in this instance is that dahlias are separated into six size categories and eleven bloom categories.
And, the background on photo #3 was Gaussian blurred for better contrast.
Toodles, and tallyho.

wow, what beautiful captures! Each has a delicacy & opulence. The first has this beautiful 'edge' coloring, it's as if it dressed up for you by putting on fine gloves. The second is almost the opposite: It intensifies towards the center and seems (in your capture) to be lit from within, really nicely caught. The third has more morphing from inner petals to out, and I can definitely see why you used a guassian filter, because the blur is necessary to separate the flower from its too-similar background. And the fourth: a beautiful vision almost on fire in its coloring. 4 beautiful captures of this wonderful family. And they go together beautifully too. A definite fav.
