Love the comp, the dof and the color pallette is exceptional. So many wonderful varieties of dahlias and this is a beauty.

Sandy - Works well as presented for me. Its raining Dahlias on NPN now. I like the glow you gave it and the choice of DOF apart from the colors.

Another great looking dahlia with wonderful gentle colors and great symmetry. I really like the warm yellow glow emanating from the center.

Sandy:
Lovely comp. The center looks like floating in petal clouds; very interesting effect.

All sweetness and light! The dof works extremely well to add to a softness.

Delicious, Sandy ! Love the Glamour Glow treatment - absolutely right for this flower - the centre seems to be nestling in a bed of clouds !
