Everything comes to he who waits and for you the light. And "two" ferns for the price of one through skilful blending.

Stunning flower indeed, I guess cactus flowers are pretty short lived given the harsh environment they live in so doubly impressive you were there to see it and share with us.

Wonderful play with high contrast b&w - the flowers and clouds could be one and the same.

The stamens are dancing!

A very enticing view - what an extraordinary looking "guts". It's amazing how Nature comes up with so many different arrangements of the same functional components - all adapted to their specific environments.

Well there's a couple more on the way so you've got little bit of time to return. A big win for the GR in the meantime though - stunning flower, magnificent in its isolation.

If this is AZ, then you should be out getting stuff like this!

Nice beard. Luckily, I generally cut my own hair as all the barbers and hair dressers are currently closed here.

Timing is everything....sometimes...but the Tak has done a good job here dealing with the brightest and darker parts.

Nice one. The lighting is very Hollywood to me. And a good all round colour co-ordination. When I grow a beard now, it's whitish and my eyebrows are greyish and my hair brownish. Are you wearing a....bun?
