Was investigating a magnolia blossom and saw theses stamens (I think that's what they are called) lying in the bottom of the blossom.

Gerald..this is a beautifully crafted image and very creative. The square comp works very well here. Nice thought

Yes, Gerald, magnolia stamen are nicely photogenic with their magenta tips and gentle curls.  This arrangement looks great.
