    Frustrated at never having seen one I asked OC what they look like when they open. He raised his eyebrows at me in surprise and said, “That’s it.”

    Exquisite closeup! Cacti blooms are unusual, but beautiful.

    Thanks, Lew. This one almost looks like it should be on a Sci-Fi movie, doesn’t it?

    Very cool. Almost looks like something from outer space.
