Softly Pink, Magnolia © 2011 Bo Mackison
The magnolias are past their prime, many of the flowers have wilted and fallen to the ground. Here is one of the late bloomers still on the tree. Photographed at the Olbrich Botanical Garden in Madison Wisconsin.
Just proves you don’t have to bloom first to be fantastic!

About Bo MackisonI'm a photographer, book-artist, traveler, naturalist, and creator of the Contemplative Creatives Journey, An Online Workshop and Community and Desert Wisdom Cards and Workshops. Though often not well known, I find the desert a welcoming place - a healing space. Its mysteries and gifts transformed me several years ago. Since that first encounter, I return again and again to fill my well in what most people think of as a desolate region. I'd love to share my desert discoveries and wisdom with you. Please subscribe to receive my five part mini email course The Gifts of the Desert. It's my gift to you.
Such beauty exists in all periods of life…
Bo, that is so true, and a very beautiful bloom it is too. 🙂
How lovely!
That would be a pretty cool photo blown up to a 36X48. Very nice.
