Question Wrong Side?
So often we take photos of the "right" side of flowers. I decided to focus on the back of this one (particularly since it was at a difficult angle to get the front side photographed). It's another one of my mom's dahlias (I've taken photos of other flowers of this same variety before). I used my 18 - 55 mm lens set to the macro setting.

Beautiful perspective. Flowers done right are gorgeous from any angle.
