Queen of the Night

At home

Epiphyllum oxypetalum

The beautiful silky petals up close, they're only open for the one night
so that moths can come along and pollinate the bloom.

By 11 a.m. all the blooms had closed & they won't open again.

Canon EOS 40D
1/100s f/5.6 at 90.0mm iso500 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Superb capture, Von. First time I have seen them. Why did you texture them?
