Fourth place is great, but if I was making the decision, this image would be number one.

Dahlias are such powerful, yet delicate flowers, aren't they? That's a very pretty variation.

Fabulous image - (I'm only at 21 of 253, but) this looks like ribbon material to me, though the overall quality in this challenge seems particularly high.

I hope you do well. 9.
