I was just looking at some of my older photo's form the spring, and found this one. I took this when I went to visit my sister in AZ. I like the little yellow flower on them. This seems to fit my mood right now so, I hope you enjoy it.

Prickly little devils, aren't they? Very nice shot. They would look good in my landscaping.

I love those "prickly little devils" that could make big problems. Maybe that love for cuctus flowers has something to do with people's character? LOL Great shot.

Cactuses make such good subject because they are so weird and alien looking. These are no exception, great picture.

I followed Jimbob's advice and didn't touch the screen whilst looking at the picture.

One of my favorites of the cactuses. Very nicely presented here too I might add.

Don't want to get to close, do I? Good focus on this I'd say.

You're feeling prickly right now, are ya? lol Nice and clear, Laura. They may hurt to touch, but they are still beautiful to look at.

"Roll out the barrel, and we'll have a barrel of fun." Yeah right. Maybe if you are a porcupine and farsighted.
What a lovely shot Laura and I hope your mood matches the flower, not the needles. lol

Wow...That's pretty sharp.....I know ...bad joke. Nice composition and capture here. I need one of these under my daughter's bedroom windows....keep them from sneaking out at night (when they get older).

Great composition, Laura, with wonderful clarity and colour! They do look quite dangerous though :P
