Soft Magnolia Blossoms | 3 May 2009 |
|
Every spring I promise myself to remember to photograph the blossoms on the nearby magnolia tree in Cooper's Pond. For once, I didn't forget, but it was close. The following day a rainstorm demolished almost every blossom, but here they are in all their glory. |
|
While an individual magnolia blossom is beautiful unto itself, I believe that grouped together the blossoms are glorious. |

I also enjoy the dreamy atmosphere created by a soft focus lens.
Photo note: I used a Pentax K200D, with the SMC 85mm soft focus lens for these photos, taken on 27 April 2009. |
