Luis, this is wonderful! I am assuming this is from one of the pipe or column cacti because I've seen this bloom before. They are very difficult, as you say, because of the different depth to the flower. You did a really wonderful job with this.

A different image for you, but a beautiful one, Luis. Beautiful rich salmon color. I have never seen a cactus blossom with this 'extension' before, very interesting!

I can certainly understand why this would be a challenge to shoot; with all the various sticky-outtie parts to it :) You did great of course; beautiful shot Luis.

What do I think? I think you have done an absolutely fantastic pic. The focus is spot on Luis, I can see why it would be difficult, with the sticky out bits as Shari points out but also the red. Red for me is one of the most difficult colours to capture, without loosing deffinition in the petals. This is top notch my friend. Bravo!!!!!
