#1 - Chrysanthemum Spray Daisy - Color Variety is Orinoco Burgundy
#2 - Chrysanthemum Cushion Cushion - aka Pompom/Pom

These are both referred to as Daisies.

I agree, I love the color version. B/W looks good too, but seems a little bit noisy to me.

Thank you very much for your identification of these two flowers; although they are quite common in my area (based on being available in my local corner flower shop ), I'd like to start keeping a log of their proper names, as flowers are some of my favorite things to shoot.

Much appreciated!
