A dahlia flower, approximately 15-20 cm in diameter, is centrally positioned in the frame, located in Paktho, Laos. The bloom exhibits numerous layered petals, ranging from light yellow at the center to a creamy off-white on the outer edges, with some distal petal tips displaying a faint lavender hue. A small, dark-colored insect is visible on one of the inner petals. Below the flower, its green stem and several green leaves are apparent, some exhibiting water droplets. To the immediate left, blurred red flowers, consistent with zinnias, are partially visible amidst dense green foliage. The background is composed of dark, out-of-focus tropical trees, including several identifiable as banana plants, beneath a narrow strip of pale blue sky. The scene is illuminated by natural light from the right, producing defined highlights on the flower and foliage.
