Ummmmm, this makes a beautiful desktop. I have it up right now. Great detail in the white petals. I like the surrounding background too. Very nice jen. Keep-pah.

They just seem so pure and pristine, Jen. I can see your attraction. They are so lovely and fragrant I'm sure too. I love the lighting on this one.

Well, my friend, I've been wanting to do a painting and could not, no way, find one to paint, so now you've given me a gorgeous reason to paint. I hope you'll allow me to do a canvas painting of this amazing Magnolia. It will mean my learning to use white in a more elegant way. lol...but I want to try. This photo is perfection!! Talk about elegantly done. The way this blossom is nestled in the dark green leaves. You did wonderful in this shot. The way the lights hits thos leaves, wow. I hope I can capture this. But I'd like to try . Verena

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round??

Good shot WC. I think everyone loves the Magnolia Blossom. It has such a regal look. The old south at its finest.

Beautiful! Love the lighting and details. And each shot can be totally different and unique. I just noticed yesterday that most here are dried up from the 100 degree heat. I then wished I took more. Thank you for sharing it.

This is stunningly beautiful. I love the way the leaves and petals seem to be almost curving together to make this image so easy on the eye. Wish I could smell it too as they are divine!
Well done!
