Gorgeous image of this beautiful flower. Magnolias always remind me of my late Dad. Whenever magnolias were mentioned he would always start quoting the lyrics to "Is it true what they say about Dixie?" as they go on to ask about sweet magnolias blossoming round everybody's door.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
Superb Photo. The clarity, the petal texture, and the light all lend to an amazing capture. The angle the photo was taken and how this beautiful magnolia fits in the view brings your eye to appreciate this even more. Truly very well done!
