Really beautiful and unusual close up Kathy. I like the matching frame you've applied too.

I would say wow, but Jimbob used them all up.:) Fantastic work on this photo. I like how the colours fade as you move outward from the center. Beautiful colours and focus in your shot.

Think about the photo before and after, never during. The secret is to take your time. You mustn't go too fast. The subject must forget about you. Then, however, you must be very quick. Henri Cartier-Bresson

Kathy...

I like "Dahlia Series - #2 "Sunburst" better, but this one's a beaut. The shot almost looks like an excellent watercolor painting. Once again the colors are fabulous. I'm not crazy about the technique you've used to fade out the petals on the outside. I feel like I'm being cheated. I'd give this a solid 6.7 in the VB.
