I love the wonderful touch the petals on the leaves add to this photo. It adds texture and interest! Good luck! I really like this one.

This "thumbnail" stood out so strongly for me, for two reasons.
The first one, is the wonderful composition, and strong white elements of this image.
Just perfect in everyway.
The other reason is due to the fact you have choosen a magnolia, the same flower I also used for my image.
So differant, so strong, so beautiful, but also so very good technically.
