Dahlias are always so perfect

This is just a quick shot of a beautiful Dahlia growing at the Trochu Arboretum, NE of Calgary. We called in on our way home from Dry Island Buffalo Jump Provincial Park on 15 July 2012. It rained all day, which made taking photos pretty much impossible, but I just couldn't resist snapping a quick shot of this beautiful bloom - such a lovely colour. Location on map is only very approximate, mainly to show where Trochu is.
