Golden Crown Revised [Flowers]
Uploaded: November 27, 2006 14:44:47
This Dahlia is a resubmit. It is one of my favorites. I cropped it a bit to make this a full frame floral.
This was taken at the Botanic Gardens in Denver, CO.

Not only is it technically SUPERB, it conveys a rich nostalgic mood to me and I could look at this for hours. I would definitely hang this on my wall! #3654531Sue L. Cullumber December 02, 2006 0
