A terrific close up and a beautiful fllower complete with visitor.
Love the colour and I wish you a good week Keith

Thanks Roger..............glad you approve. Have a good week yourself.

Not sure quite how, but you've made it seem as though you've waited by this lovely dahlia flowerhead absolutely hours to get the right result!
Anyway it's a delightful capture, Keith!

I'm not that dedicated mate! Glad you like it though..........and thanks.

Beautiful survivor with magical appeal. :)
Wonderful shot, Keith!

Thanks for your kind comment and group suggestions. Always appreciated.

A perfect shape and congrats that you caught it with a "visitor"!

Thank you very much Gudrun :-)

Es tut gut noch ein paar Blumen hier zu sehen...und Insekten, die sich so daran erfreuen wie wir es tun...bevor der Winter kommt... :)

Thank you. Most of the flowers in my back garden have already died, but some of the ones in large pots in my front garden have survived and are still flowering at the moment.

Du kannst dich glücklich schätzen, dass du noch so schöne Blüten in deinem Garten hast, Keith! Bei uns war im August alles von der Sonne verbrannt und ausgetrocknet. Danach kam nichts mehr.
