A different variety with more color than the prior posts. the Staghorns were growing and almost intertwined with the Beaver Tails. It is hard to differentiate the blooms growing from the cacti.
I cropped it square for 1) isolate the flower only and 2) for a square greeting card. :)
I hope it works...

Pretty vivid colors and a fascinating flower center. It'll look great on the card.

Eia: This is excellent. The square crop and the tight view works for me and the sharpness and detail in the center is especially nice. Well done.>=))>
