Description
Captured 7/12/07, approximately 1.5 miles from my abode.
I snapped this while separated from the flower by a moderately high fence, which in turn plays havoc with most POVs.
Ergo, I finally caught an elusive cactus flower in all its glory. Their blooming period must be short lived because I walk by this particular cacti at least six times a month, with nary a bud displayed to announce the arrival of a new flower. Also, ironic how such a lovely flower can be the issue of such an ugly cacti.
Thanks for the peek, and your kind and uncritical comments are always welcome.

Oh how excellent!! I love this POV too with a beautiful blue sky as a background curtain to allow the emphasis of this glorious flower to take pride of place in the shot. Wonderful details and superb quality. Hugs Chrissy. xx

Unusual angle make this cacti flower shot so interesting. Love the blue sky as a background for this greenish white beauty. Also like a contrast between a thorns and a flower it self. Well done Harry!

Because this is such a different pov for photographing cacti flowers, you have brought us a truly unique snd expressive shot. Had you done this from any other angle, it would have been just another flower but like this, you have a pure item of art. Excellent... or may I use the term... stellar shot!
