This is one of my favorite flora photos from 2007. It’s simple, but the colors are intriguing to me. I took the photo in Dundee, Oregon around July 27th. Click on the image for a 1680×1050 version, good for desktop use.

Dahlias in Canby, Oregon

Posted by on September 3, 2006 No comments

Codi and I went to the Canby Dahlia Festival today to take some photos. We ended up with 308 shots, most of which turned out beautifully. Here are just a few samples. Maybe I’ll post more later.

This is what 308 images look like as a contact sheet. Doesn’t look like much to me. Next time I’ll take more.

There were hundreds, maybe thousands, of bees. It wasn’t distracting at all – they were busy (har har) getting pollen.

Here we are…

This dahlia looks like it has teeth. Feed me Seymore, feed me now!

Codi took this picture. I like the angle and colors.

This reminds me of an artichoke blooming… sort of.
