Through My Lens 
They are just beyond words… beautifully captured as only Maralee can do…
Thank you so much, Rob.
Oh my goodness!!!……to beautiful for words. Well don Maralee.
Thank you, Linda. I had never seen this Dahlia before so I was excited when I saw it. It was huge – about 6″ across.
WOW!!! That is huge
Firecracker is a good name for them.
I agree. It just sort of exploded from the center.
Fantastic images Maralee. You need to get some business cards made up and pass them around at your local flower shops ;-).
Thank you so much. I’ve been thinking about your suggestion – I want to get some good quality prints to show and I haven’t gotten around to doing that yet. I’m such a procrastinator.
Dahlias just seem to want to grow around here. What a great shot of a wonderful specimen you captured there.
Thank you, Gunta. They must grow much better west of the mountains. I had a couple dahlia plants this year and while they had a couple of blooms, they never really took off.
Gorgeous!
Thank you, Judy.
really like the crop on the second shot
Thank you, Scott.
Good decision.
I don’t see too many flowers growing this time of year so when I see a beautiful bouquet, I have to take advantage of it.
Wow, splendid colors!
Thank you very much, Eva.
Exquisite dear very very beautiful
