Mandahlia—On a field trip with a flower photography workshop at Maine Media in Rockport, Maine, we visited the Endless Summer Dahlia Farm. The farm sells tubers to “dahlia addicts” across the country.

This particular dahlia caught my eye because of the regularity of several aspects of its pattern: not only the concentric circles, but also the repetition in the larger petals surrounding the center of the image.
