Description
The Dahlia is fresh from this morning, seen in a farmer house garden near by.
I did some post work with the background because of artistic licence 😊

Dalien waren in meiner kindheit meine lieblingsblumen! schöner ausschnitt der die blütenblätter zeigt, die wir kleine tüten aussehen 😃
Brilliant work Priska.
Such beautiful light!
Artistic license (what you mention in your description) is exactly what terrific photographers use and take. This is splendid. And sumptuous. The light is so soft, and the rolled-up petals are so creamy. And the yellows seem deep and cavernous, inside all that creamy white. And your encroaching black bathes your flower in deep chasms. And you placed the flower not in the center---as many would do---but left-center, drawing us to it all the more, and giving the right side a fuller 'voice' (because symmetry tends to equalize everything and take away character from all sides). Beautifully done. And, once more, essential to see it full size.
(This isn't an exact comparison, but it's in the same arena. Here's a google link to the photographer Edward Weston---I give you a full google link because it would take up too much space to give you individual links. You may know his work, but that doesn't lessen the comparison: When you see his contrasts of light and dark, and the way he captures undulation and curves, etc, you'll see a comparison to shots of yours. He came to mind immediately. Here's the link ((it's long!)): https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&tbm=isch&source=hp&biw=1472&bih=1229&ei=Rzb-WdWCJqvKjwS9upa4BA&q=edward+weston&oq=edward+weston&gs_l=img.3...812.3229.0.3463.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0..0.0....0...1..64.img..0.0.0....0.qBXNaOiLNGk)
