This is an electric image with vibrant color.
You have caught an early stage of this flower's opening show !
So glad to see an image from you.
I'm sure you'll find a new way to "BE" on the photo blog that will not be draining or taxing.
It seems to me that participating with the AM3 family should be satisfying, invigorating, and/or inspiring.
See you when you are ready....Best, Dulcie

A really good one. Love the colors n a bit of white on the inside of the petals helped to balance things up, i think

This is a wonderful and dreamy capture, I like it very much!
"See" you later, whenever you have the time...;-)

I have one thing that I have to report. I saw the movie "Departures" today. I was moved. It's a good movie. Thank you.

Beautiful color and a golden background, great job!

Your work becomes more stunning everyday. Keep well friend.

Wow that is the 'pinkest' pink I've seen. Wonderful to see you back Jack:)

Such beautiful fresh colors in this, just hope you can keep posting your great shots even if you dont have time for commenting often

Delightful two colour arrangement Jack.

Excellent close-up and wonderful colors.

Your flowers are exquisite, Jack. You don't just take photos of flowers--you breathe life into them with your superb compositions, lush renderings and attention to detail.

Love the colors and comp, Jack. Ummm...... I'm thinking texture...... (sorry, I've been working on some today!) :-)

Beautiful!

Stunning!! Just so STUNNING!!

That beautiful magnolias are Jack! I knew the white. He had a few years ago. I had not ever seen this color! Kisses and see you tomorrow ... Adela

Very nice contrast of colors... Hope all is OK for you Jack...

Bonjour Jack, je reviens après une longue absence...mais je vois que vous aussi êtes dans le même cas, j'espère que rien de grave ne vous éloigne d'Aminus.
Une fleur de magnolia pour célébrer le printemps, des couleurs éclatantes et lumineuses, des couleurs presque fluos et irréelles, belle journée à vous, Jack .. je continuerai avec mes PPS ..Sincères amitiés.

Lovely macro.

fabulous especially against that background

a very beautiful pink color !! jack
friendships !

Fascinated by the colors, and energy between these in this shot. WOW

wow a photo full of great colors! impressing flower!!

As long as there are pictures, it is still a bit of your presence. Sometimes I know that a pause is needed. I hope you are well, but if you left a long time, I lose a friend indeed! Very soon Jack.

Va-VOOOOOM! Excellent.

Today I returned to watch ... I found your beautiful magnolia. I note with disappointment that no more photos of my friend Jack! Do not know how sorry ... but despite my disgust I think our friendship, very recent, you can continue! So I do and I hope so. Good luck and see you soon dear friend! Many kisses for you! Adela

very beautiful , excellent

Excellent work! It's a masterpiece!

A beautiful image with which to come back, Jack. Daily posting is overrated and spreading yourself thin to respond and reciprocate is also overrated. Taking care of oneself and one's family is much more important. I hope you are well.

stunning colous and details!!

The color contrast here is just incredible.

très beau.

Really beautiful!
