A demure magnolia named Jane

A vibrant macro photograph of a single jane magnolia blossom with a shallow depth of field and selective focus on the pistils.

A demure magnolia named Jane — 100mm | f/4 | ISO 100 | EXP 1/640

My side yard where the back meets the front features a fence gate, a forsythia, some tiger lillies and one modest Jane magnolia. It’s taken a beating in recent years—it simply has not responded well to its transplant two years back. After a complete bust of bloom last Spring my magnolia bush appears to be getting some of its strength back. While hardly covered with blossoms, there’s at least some quality bloomage to enjoy.
