Default A 10 inch dinner plate...

Ten inch dinner plate Dahlia that is... This beauty just bloomed under the living room window. It measures a full 10 inches across it's widest point. Hope you like it...

This one is kind of dreamy...

Great shot....I love how the color in the second one pops out at you. It made me put my nose to the screen for a whiff. Thanks for sharing.

Fred, like them both but for what my opinion is worth the second one holds your attention much more - not sure if its the black background of just the incredible detail you've managed to capture in the petals
