Magnolia by maggiemae

Magnolia

Rain and colder temperatures kept us inside with no real PO. However our magnolia tree which is producing quite a few flowers at this time of year offered one flower at a lower level.

Could be nicer on the Black..

Three good things:
1. The white of the flower contrasts with the glossy dark green of the leaves
2. I used the EV to create a darker shot
3. Cooler nights
super lighting!

One of my favorite trees (thought they are a bit messy when the flowers drop). I like how dramatic your image looks.

I really like this image with the lone bloom nestling amongst all those dark leaves. The light's great too.

Every time I see a magnolia on 365 I think I must buy a new one, ours died a couple of years ago after a few days of over 40 degree heat.

We have a magnolia in our front garden, but the flowers are bigger and pink. I love all the varieties.

@onewing I remember when we lived up more in the tropical north, no magnolias around but down here in the frigid south, plenty!

@casablanca Those pink ones when there is no leaves on the tree are a sight to behold!
