Dahlia Garden: Flaming Red Dahlia

(for those of you who are interested in seeing my San Francisco trip images, I have uploaded 10 pictures in this batch [98 in the past couple of weeks]. Thanks everyone for your comments and your visits to my photostream! I hope you enjoy the show!)

The Conservatory of Flower's breath-taking Dahlia Garden was overflowing with thousands of absolutely perfect flowers! So many lovely blossoms, I wished I could have spent the whole day taking pictures!

By the way, for those of you who may not know, there is a very fun, free Flickr competition site which you might like to take part in. It's called FlickrDuel and features dozens of ongoing competitions, or duels every day. You can enter your pictures into many different categories and vote on contests too. It's another way to enjoy your photography!

This image was taken during my trip to San Francisco during September 12-15, 2011.
