Tulip Tree Flower

Saucer Magnolia, Tulip Tree (Magnolia x soulangeana). Sometimes called a Japanese Magnolia.

It is looking like spring again. Weather forecast is sunny for the entire week with temps in the mid 60s. Not a normal winter by any means. I saw a lot of things sprouting leaves and flowers today. This one was my favorite.

Enjoy!

Nikon D3 - ISO 250, 105mm Micro, f/9, 1/320 sec. This lens is somehow able to store distance from subject in the metadata - 750mm from subject. I'm in love...
