SWAN ISLAND DAHLIA FESTIVAL part 3

I have finally finished editing the photographs I took and realize I took over 500!  I had fun experimenting with some of them and using the artistic part of the editing program. I enjoyed it as I got to be creative!  So without further adieu, here are some artistic experimentations.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 I think dahlias are so unique and colorful.
Now here are just a few more of the shots I enjoy and want to share.  
I cannot post them all so selected some favorites.
 
I hope you enjoy all the color!
