Another portent of Spring are our magnolia trees which are loaded with buds. This one is close to blooming. All comments welcome.>=))>

They have already bloomed here and are dropping petals like crazy. I really like this, Bill. The nascent bud almost ready to open is a different take. Good eye!

Our magnolias are not yet properly in bud, Bill - so nice to see that there are beginning to flourish somewhere ! All the detail just where it should be - and a nice moment to have caught this with the flower just appearing.

Bill I have seen both, both beautiful, but this is my favorite for the mute colors and the stark contrast in the top of the flower. A splendid work in all aspects. It seems that the wether is warmer there, here is still snowing.
