A cheery photo for today

Yesterday's photo was a bit sad and depressing, so I thought that today I should aim for a nice bright photo, and I found that photo today while out walking.

I went for a walk up the Valley this afternoon, and saw this lovely bright flower. I'm not sure what it is. To me it looks like a dahlia, but I could be wrong. Is someone out in blip land able to confirm this for me? An added bonus is the bee on it, doing the last of its job before winter.

Because of this being a cheery blip, I'm not even going to discuss the weather. I can hear you all giving a sigh of relief! Lol.
