"Flowers really do intoxicate me." ~Vita Sackville-West . . . I wonder if she had dahlias in her White Garden at Sissinghurst :) This was taken at the Southport Flower Show with my Kodak V550 . . Thanks for looking, please do comment if you wish :)

Great photo and presentation Lyn. The framing is excellent. How do you get that shadow look around the frames? I find it very striking. Excellent post.

Somehow your capture seems to glow from within. The lighting is superb. The soft light adds a richness to the tone of the flower and the detail is spot on. An excellent work Lyn.
