Hi Sharon, I’m so sorry I am late with a response. I have been out of town doing some traveling and haven’t had a lot of internet access. This is just wonderful. I’m so happy to have this image featured in Dimensions. I took the shot in one of the New England States on my recent trip to see the Fall colors. I was just tickled to see that it had been featured. Thank you so very much.

Thank you, thank you for the kind remarks. When I photographed the bloom the background was quite cluttered so I decided to change it and do a little digital editing. So, so happy you like it.
