This year’s spring has been cold, windy, and wet, not the best conditions for photography. Our Star Magnolia was the first one to bloom, but its flowers were killed by the frost, and the tree looked forlorn and dejected. The sun did come out yesterday for a few hours and I was able to get the following shots in our backyard.
I looked up at the two Magnolia Soulangeana (Saucer Magnolia) trees and saw that their flowers somehow survived the freeze.
While I was aiming the camera skyward, a jet silently flew across the sky.
