I've decided to regularly add some of my favorite flower pics to the blog. This is, of course, because I'm in a writing dry spell and just sticking a pic on here is at least something.
This pic is of the flower (well, not so much) of a cactus I brought back with me from Arizona. The flower only lasts one day, then dies. So you have to be quick with the camera and hope it's a nice day for photography. The cactus died not long after because, really, a cactus doesn't like Maryland weather.
What you see here is mostly the base and stem of the flower because, frankly, I liked the results better. The actual flower was a rather drab white. I moved it out to Mom's driveway and shot it from above against the macadam to get a good background.
