It was a big flower, rather like a red and white ‘Cafe au Lait’.
These have to be wordless. There just aren’t any words for such wonders.
I have some fellow-feeling with this flower, because that’s what my hair often looks like in the morning.
This is bizarre: I’ve been mulling over a post about that very subject. No, not your hair in the morning: MY hair in the morning! Blogs do lead us into some strange territories.
Setting aside the colour, of course!
Beautiful shots! I like these a lot.
Thank you!
What kind of dahlia is it? It looks really amazing.
If I had to guess, it would be ‘Santa Claus’ but that is just a guess. It could be quite an old variety – it was taken at Rousham which is famous for its dahlia border.
Thank you. It might be “Santa Claus” indeed 🙂
Excellent macro shot on the second one with great clarity and exposure.
Thanks, David.
A bad hair day with both the colouring and the perm!😀
This would have made a great bathing hat in the 1970s.
Glorious.
Thanks, Lisa.
Wow, so beautiful!! 😍
The petals have a lovely wave to them.
Amazing!!!!
If I remember rightly, it was a large flower – not quite ‘Cafe au Lait’ size, but certainly not one you’d miss!
Beautiful 🙂
Thanks, Eunice.
Stunning — both the bloom and your photo!!
