Magnolia

Posted by Richard Irwin (Belper, United Kingdom) on 22 April 2008 in Plant & Nature.

I was a bit early photographing these, as the flowers were not quite fully out. It's funny how some of these trees are in full flower, and other yet to get started.

I think you've caught them at the perfect moment ... I find that when this variety of magnolia opens fully they lose something. The light and detail, here, is brilliant!
