Needed calm

Something calming and beautiful for election night. I found this in the dahlia garden that I like so much. I actually went back because I didn’t like my first picture of it in bright sunlight.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly
unsharp.

Very nice this dahlia pomponette, beautiful in color and I know from experience that this color is very difficult in bright sunlight, but this is a wonderful result Helen BV

And here we are the day after the US elections ... and NOTHING has changed, everything is statue-quo ... The US won't believe the next 4 years, it's a choice they made, so ... live with it!

Beautiful capture (but I don't think red is considered a calming color)!

It's a Dahlia, the kind I love. They are used for flowerarrangements and here in Belgium we had flowerprocessions with these dahlia's

What a spectacular flower and to be still blooming in November. You’ve chosen the perfect photo for today.

Yes, we do need something calming for election night - this hits the spot! Although it also speaks of passion and tears.

The colour is gorgeous, these always remind me of certain paper Christmas decorations! Definitely need any calm we can find on this nail-biting day. V

It IS a dahlia- can remember which type - and a lovely colour.
The world is watching tonight and hoping for a good outcome.
