wonderful this image, a great diagonale......

A lovely vantage point and a superb capture Keith
I like the wonderful detail especially the leaves and the nice bright colours,
Really is a magnificent macro ! Have a good day if the weather allows.

Belle composition avec de jolis détails et un beau bokeh!
Bon Week end Keith.

I think you're right Keith, it looks like a dahlia I had once. The detail you have captured in the flower, the leaves and the hover fly is wonderful! I love the out of focus background which you do so well with your flower and insect pictures. The colours are gorgeous as well :-)

I hope you have a good weekend, whatever the weather!

prachtig keith

Captivating colors and superb capture, Keith

Toll,wie du diese wunderschöne Blüte diagonal ins Bild gebracht hast lieber Keith,die Schwebfliegen sind ja nicht so groß,aber du hast auch sie hervorragend fotografiert,eine richtig harmonische Aufnahme zeigst du von dieser Blüte mit der Schwebfliege,gefällt mir sehr gut mit diesen schönen weichen Bokeh:))

Wünsche noch einen schönen Nachmittag,ganz liebe Grüße Güni :))

Superb Keith!

A wonderful colorful macro, Keith !

I was going to suggest a dahlia, but you've already done that - so I'll just agree with you. The delicate picture of the hover fly is brilliant.

Jean-Paul took the words out of my mouth -- oh, wait, I took the words out of his mouth, didn't I? Anyway, he speakss for both of us. A fine capture and an excellent photo.
