Ram:
Have not seen much of your SOA this year and starting to get withdrawal syndrome! Good thing you post this one to get me salivating until the next post. I really like this a lot!!!

Boy Ram I have got to find me one of these flowers but most likely not this year. Headed to the upper peninsula Michigan for a week long fall color photo shoot and flower season is about done here anyway. Great shot and one of the best ways to show a flowers true beauty. Thanks for sharing.

Ram, I have not much time for photos and comments in these days; pity. I have seen some beautiful photo of yours scrolling in front of my eyes. This is one of those. It's not a floral photo, it's the image of a splendid dawn. The sun rises in the bottom and begins the conquest of the magenta sky. Splendid.
Cheers.

Beautiful new perspective which simplifies the complex structure of the dahlia petals. Graceful and soothing!

Great colors and nice lines Ram. I like the 'up-sweep' of the petal.

Hi Ram

It's been also raining here in Quebec since the spring

All the autumn leaves are rotting and some are ruined

Your Dahlia has lovely sweeping lines, and sweet pastel colors, Another great abstract by the master artist

I love the way the colors merge here...that yellow is a wonderful touch. Great lines, also, they really flow through the image...
