Stephen - Nice unusual perspective for the Dahlia. I like the sharp petal edges in front and the receding DOF there after.

I like the sharp edges and shallow depth achieved in this image Stephen. Well done.

Great close-up of this beautiful flower, Stephen! Unique POV, nice color shadings and good DOF choice. Some of those curled center petals look like a fish mouth to me. :smile:
