Decorative  Dahlia

Found this Dahlia in the garden today, it measures 9inches by 9inches. Unfortunately the colour isn't as bright as the real thing. Need help from Bonkersbon.

Well BB I was thinking of the quality of the photo, nobody takes them like you do, as I said I tried it everyway but didn't catch the full colour.

Thanks Drb but hard to imagine how anyone could improve this assume you used flash to get dark background ? This makes the pale yellow stand out so clearly - kind of you Drb but this a great photograph and you really should submit some more always love to see them.

Very Kind BB, Yes I did use flash, but it was dull and getting towards evening, thank you, the feelings mutual,.
