If I'd known .....

This beautiful Aster would turn out so well I'd have taken more care with the framing (I know it will make a person cringe-not too far from ere-that I clipped the bottom petal, but the only other pic I took clipped the tops !!! It was careless photo-ing but I believed the light was wrong and had little expectation of it turning out well.
Anyway, despite the clipping it still shows how beautiful this flower is .... :0)
