    Carol, I came to your blog from your comment on Tamago's blog. Your photography is amazing, and I'm happy to have discovered your blog. But today I am on a quest and thought you might be able to help. You see, TAMAGO entered a giveaway on my blog, but did not include her email address, and I can't find one on her blog. I was hoping I could impose on you to leave up this comment to let her know, if she happens to comment on this post, that she has actually won the giveaway (a very expensive kitchen knife). Thank you!

    Oh Carol! I've seen some Magnolia trees in California when I lived there for a few months and I am so amazed by its flowers but I don;t get to see them so closely because those trees were high! Now I see through your photo how interesting it looks especially the hairy sepals! Oh those are beautiful! Do they have a scent? because in lotions I get to see Magnolia scent but not sure if it's really coming from the flower at all. Love it and beautiful list of Thanksgiving Carol!
