  1. I like these, especially the second one. The flowers in the first one are shown against a rather different background! xx

  2. Oh my! How pretty, The white looks astonishingly white! It makes me shade my eyes from the brightness.
    Very lovely Glo.

  3. Thanks Flighty. There is a grouping of daffs, narcissus, and tulips on the grass verge near the beach promenade. I've been meaning to take a photo before while they are still in their prime, but I have usually been driving by. I parked the car and quickly hopped onto the road and snapped a photo with the beach in the background. The white magnolia tree is one planted in a downtown garden area and looked quite resplendent in the sunlight.

    Glad you like them, Daffy. Yes, the whiteness was highlighted in the sunshine and is what caught my eye ~ a definite contrast!

  4. I would like the white shrub in my garden! I am trying to introduce more white. It just looks so amazing in the evening light. x

  5. Hi Louise ~ I left a note on your blog with the name of this white shrub ~ it's a magnolia stellata ~ I saw one for sale today but it was $70 ~
