Magnolia Blossoms

I take pictures of the magnolia tree in our backyard every year as it blooms. This year I decided to do something different so I took pictures of it at night! I used two 40" umbrellas with 85w CFL bulbs and stands that go up to 5 meters high. By shooting at night I was able to precisely control the lighting and get a black background.
