The moon and the dahlia

So I have been a little over the top with taking photos of dahlias. Summer is over right? But these are all from one plant that has worked overtime this year, giving flower after flower. And those of you who have raised them know that unless they are staked way up high, they fall over because the tops of their heads are so heavy. Since I didn't do the staking, my house has been full of cut dahlias. But then I went out into the garden one  magical evening before a storm and found them in the full moonlight.

    As I await the exhilaration of photographing white dahlia, I am gearing up by walking around Ukiah and catching glimpses and fragrant gasps of early spring. You have been one of a kind as a flower mentor: nothing brings me a more sincere or more grounded state of ecstasy than photographing flowers in moments of gleaming light. Thank you for showing us a path and a way to higher consciousness through awareness of beauty, around and within.
