This image depicts a close-up view of two dahlia flowers and one bud in a garden setting, located in Paktho, Laos. The prominent flower on the left features multiple layers of light pink petals that transition to a yellow-cream hue at its densely packed center. To its right, another dahlia flower displays multiple layers of uniformly pink petals. A spherical, greenish-yellow bud is situated between the two open flowers. Dark green stems and leaves are visible in the lower portion of the frame, partially in shadow and partially illuminated. The background consists of a clear blue sky with scattered white cumulus clouds. A faint line of darker vegetation is discernible on the horizon to the left. The scene is illuminated by natural light, suggesting either early morning or late afternoon, with highlights evident on the flower petals and foliage. No human figures are present.
