I recently took a walk through Seattle's Volunteer Park in the late afternoon, and their Dahlia Garden was a riot of brilliant blooms.

(Cross-posted from my site, where there are additional photos to see: https://andrewflenniken.com/2026/08/24/august-24th-2026-red-dahlia-summer/)

There were many different varieties, in so many shapes and colors it was hard to believe they were all the same type of flower.  Whenever I see dahlias though I always think of my cousin, who loves the red ones, so this post is for her.  😊

Gear: Nikon Z 7II, Nikon Z 40mm f2
