This cactus flower image was taken this spring at the Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix, AZ. The image has been sitting on my hard drive for several months as I have had mixed thoughts on whether I like it. When going through my files from this spring, it is surprising how many cactus flower images I made. Typically I concentrate on wildflowers, but this year was different. Why? I don’t know, but for some reason they caught my attention and my photography was different this spring.  And I like different!

Enjoy your weekend everyone! For some of you, fall is here. But for those of us in the desert, temperatures below 100 will be quite welcoming!
