Saucer magnolia

It seems as if alot of time has past since we have seen the beauty of Spring.  But thank goodness, it has come again in all of its' glory.  This is a photo of a saucer magnolia that was taken this week at my home.  I have found that March and April are great months to take photos outdoors when plant life is starting to take a deep breath and grow. 

The sky is always so blue during these two months.  I am a complete amateur at photography.  So much so that I usually get a perfect picture of one of my fingers.  However, lately I have been trying harder and I am quite pleaased at what I have accomplished.

Cape May is not only a great place to vacation and head to the beach, but, to take notice of the specific plant life we have in our area. 

I would not recommend this plant if you live within a block from the ocean because of the delicate petals and ocean breezes--not a great combination. 

I hope this picture makes you smile.
