2013, Day 78 - Fluid

I don't know why but these star magnolias are my favorite flowers.  I love the slight blush of peach towards the center, the slight wave in the petals, the clean lines and simplicity.  That they last such a short amount of time makes them that much more covetous.  These blossoms are short lived but amazing and I smile every time I walk past the tree.
