I had to go the post office for work this past Friday and checked out another florist along the way and looky what they had! OOOOOOHHHH! Just what I wanted. Style. Full Frame and centered...sort of...and a flower of course and a dahlia especially. Was going to do a net shot but the city was bereft of decent gerberas so I went with this.
