Oh, btw, I came back the next day with a plan to focus stack to get more DOF, but sadly, the time had past and the blooms were all dying off. It is a short-lived pleasure to see this.

Thank you, Pete, hal, Michael and Terry.
Hal, I believe it is Cereus grenadensis. I am not at all familiar with all of the cacti.

Beautiful, Cindy - takes me back to my desert days as a youth! Wonderfully crisp and beautifully composed!

Lively image, Cindy. Very well composed and seen. Fine, sharp petals, to say nothing of the angry protection this plant affords itself!

Such beautiful blooms
from such a hostile-looking and prickly plant.
Most unusual.
That is not a Saguaro is it, Cindy ?
A very lovely image.
