Ned told me about Swan Island Dahlias, and I met him there this morning. He was kind enough to show me around, give me a few tips, and got me hooked on Dahlias. This is my first attempt.

What an "eye popper" beautiful work. Ned is a good guy and another that like sharing his knowledge!

Nice shot of a "Bee Happy" dahlia Richard. These are great to catch early in the morning just after the sprinklers are turned off, the extra water adds a lot. Then it's time to get in closer with a macro lens.

That's a dahlia? I have a lot to learn; it looks different then the ones I usually see posted. Regardless, beautiful. I think the bud at the bottom adds, and I'm glad you included it.
