Great colours, clarity and composition of this shot. Really a great close up and it's kind of sad to see such a beautiful magnolia fad away & I love magnolia's and their fragrance. WOW

Looks to me like there is a lot of beauty left in the old girl. I have been to Beaufort. Beautiful place and full of history. Nice post Jen.

Beautiful. Just cut that thing off and stick it in a vase full of 7Up. Someone told me that preserves flowers longer, but I wouldn't know. Very nice.

It's arty, smooth and sophisticated. Magnolias are great aren't they. This is all the more interesting for being past its prime.

You have made this dying flower into an enduring work of art. All the beauty of youth and the savor of age. Excellent.
