Today's Flowers - Magnolias

I've always loved magnolia blossoms, especially the white ones like the ones I've posted today. I'm fascinated by these big, beautiful blooms in the trees, some bigger than my face as I walk up to them (if I'm lucky enough to find them low on a tree).



I think they're beautiful even when they've begun to age and they become a brownish color.

Sky Watch #27

See, it was like this. I was looking up at this perfectly blue sky and this magnolia tree jumped in the way. Everytime I tried to look towards more blue sky a big 'ol flower jumped in my shot. So there I am looking at the blue sky through the branches of this tree....




Okay, the truth is there was nothing but blue sky, not even a wisp of a cloud so I broke it up with a flower. :-)
