Oh yes definitely! I have so many that I should have entered, but I just never took the time to do it. I think I only entered 2 or 3 in the dahlia category, but I have so many others. Oh well, there's always next year. LOL

Well, i have to agree!
that was a show stopper for me..

outstanding floral display, and you have composed it all in a beautifully receding shot, and still keep it all in good focus...

Thanks for full marks bloomoon! The blue flower is delphinium, I think it is Guinevere but not certain, I got it from a car boot sale. I have several self sets now crossed with others and have some really interesting ones.
