Here's one that I'm not sure what to think of. It looks ok but, I have no idea what it is.

From DPS Photos


Thanks for looking and I hope you like it OK.

It is interesting...can't identify it, but as usual you have done it justice.

Great shot Fred as not all flowers are fresh and at their peak. I guess this a seen better days flower. Oh, I was interrupted and didn't get to comment on your last post of flowers and one with a bloom and spider. Good job, but you sure that's not a little alien sitting in there?

Very interesting indeed. I have no idea what it is but it is very interesting. Lots of detail.

That's a beautiful photo you have there. It almost looks like an oil painting. I believe it may be a Dahlia.

Fred, this is one of those photos that make me go, "Ooooooh, that's so cool!"

Whatever it is, you've done it justice.
