Karma Choc

I recently received a gift of a monopod for my camera and haven't used it yet. Today was the day and i practiced on this superb dahlia, Karma Choc. Certainly the image I achieved was sharper than the hand held version so I was delighted.

I have no apologies for bringing you another flower as I really love this dahlia, especially when the sun shines behind the petals so they glow with a mahogany glow. I am also intrigued with the tiny yellow marks behind the petals.
