I decided not to crop the little morning glory cap the dahlia was wearing. It added some more color and I didn't want to destruct the dahlia. Background was via Perfect Effects 4 with a little masking and touch up.

You made the right decision IMO Frank...the lavender goes nicely with the rich color of the dahlia and 'she' is so lovely it would be a shame to take anything away from 'her'...great background work too...bravo on all counts.

If you stare at an orange juice container because it says, "CONCENTRATE"...you might be a redneck.

The background you used brought out the dahlia nicely - it gives your image a three dimensional effect!!! I do like the morning glory - it perks up the frame with a nice spot of color!!! Well Done

It looks just right. The textured background I also like very much.
A lovely bright and cheerful image Frank

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

Frank - The texture layered behind the blooms works beautifully here. Terrific work in presenting a lovely image.

The dahlia and morning glory are pretty in that they have a color clash going on there. Lovely shot Frank.
