Last year I photographed some amazing dahlias at Longwood Gardens at the Greater Philadelphia Dahlia Society show. So I was really looking forward to attending and photographing this year’s show. Unfortunately, from a photographic perspective, I didn’t think this year show was as good as last year. It was in a room with mixed lighting – some incandescent, some florescent and some I’m not sure what – and there were several fans blowing in the room to keep the temperatures down. So I’m not as happy with my photos as I was last year – so only a few photos.
