Description
This year I tried some dahlias from seed called the "Bishops Children". They are from the old dark leaved favourite "Bishop of Llandaff". I lovr dark leaved plants so thought they should be worth a go. This is the first to flower of about 20 plants and sadly it looks just like the bishop himself. So while I await new colours to come forth from the other plants, I give you a close up of this likeness.
A big shot for those who like to see up close and personal

Fantastic detail; I love dahlias in all their various shapes and colours!
great details ! like this colors!!
Awesome detail and color!!!
A superb capture and the details look fantastic in zoom. I love this colour even though you were hoping for something different.
Super sharp capture my friend. God Bless.
This is a wonderful macro shot, well done Kevin.
From seed, eh! You have the very greenest fingers of anyone I know. The Bishop is one of 4 of my Dahlias to have suffered in the hard winter, as I didn't lift any of them! He has one measly sprout, but will doubtless make an effort. I did however forget to take the cannas in and they are all gone after about 10 years. I bought one new one, and you sent me some, so allis not lost completely!
Excellent shot.
Wonderful macro Kevin. Well done. I would love to see the whole flower as well. You must have a beautiful garden. Good on you. Cheers Pam
