One of the reasons I love the Star Magnolia so much is that each blossom has its own shape & posture seemingly expressing its own emotions.

July is the month of the Magnolia stellata, aka the star magnolia, a small tree native to Japan. They are one of my all-time favorite flowers to shoot... especially since they bloom in the dead of winter here in Chile.

Each Star Magnolia blossom has a unique expression, a dance of petals & a central spark. I love finding the individual personality & beauty in each flower.
What does this one say to you?

#Magnolia #Stellata blooms with so much personality. Each one opens in its own unique way. This one seems a little shy, gently hiding her beautiful stamen heart.
One of my favorite flowers to photograph.

I have to admit, of the thousands of #floral photos that I've taken, my favorites are the Trichocereus macrogonus var. pachanoi, #SanPedro #Cactus #flower & the #Magnolia #stellata, aka #Star Magnolia. However, yesterday, I shot this Lilium that gripped my heart. 💓
