Dahlias
This gallery contains a collection of dahlia images which I have taken over the past four years at the Canby Dahlia Festival in Canby, Oregon (south of Portland). This annual festival is held during the last weekend in August and Labor Day weekend in September, it's well worth a visit if you are in the area.
As a photographer I am drawn to this event to capture the bold colors, intricate petal formations, and the amazing variety of dahlias found there. My objective at the event is to attempt to photograph the dahlias from numerous perspectives, including wide angle views of the large fields down to macro views of the tiny critters that live in and around the individual dahlias.
