Canon 400D, 100 Macro, 1/40 @ f16, ISO 100, tripod.
The long-fingered petals of the stellata magnolia flutter randomly in a light breeze - one of the loveliest flowers of the Spring, I always think.

Beautiful, Ian. The mag blossom is well composed and the bg, in the same colors, works well for the subject. The processing is very appealing as well.

This is a terrific look at this magnolia bloom, Ian. The long white petals flow so elegantly through the frame leading so well to the fine details in the center.

Ian: Marvelous magnolia image. Excellent peak into the center and wonderful whites. Nicely done. >=))>

Fabulous take on this Star Magnolia. Graceful lines, good detail and sharp center that grounds the image.

Compelling angle and composition with the pistils and stamen off center make this a winner.

Really nice angle and composition. You've captured the effect of the wind with exquisite subtlety.
