Darn, my comment went away when I clicked to enlarge this wonder. I said that I was overwhelmed at your mastery of this type of photo and I was drinking in the colors and many fuzzy hairy details on this cactus for goodness' sake. In the whole screen view, what is the lovely petal in the lower left that is like a sandy beach pattern? These contrasting softness with the prickly shape of the leaves of a succulent are mind boggling. I love this one most of the whole last month's offerings to us. Thanks!

Very nice selective focus. I like how the light is on the center.
