Magnolia Blossoms_2019

My annual collection of magnolia blossoms appear below.  On the second day of taking these pictures, I took something like 530 pictures. Once I downloaded them onto the computer, I had to sort through them and kept something like half. It was a windy day and my shutter speed wasn't always fast enough. I was also moving between an aperture setting and a shutter speed setting as I worked on capturing what I thought might be a great shot. The thirteen pictures appearing below are probably the best ones. These magnolia blossoms got my wife singing a Grateful Dead song, which is a feat in itself. If I should happen to come across any other pictures that might be worth sharing, I will add them in another post.
