I thought I'd stay with the purple and green theme today. Maybe I'll work my way through the rainbow. It was pink and green last week, now purple, next.... red? I took this at Jack London's cactus garden, in Glen Ellen, CA.

Lovely post Donna. The red of the pear on the green is gorgeous and the lighting/shadows are perfect. Very well done.

This is cool - I really like the shadows and light in here, along with the composition. At Jack London's, eh? Does this mean a tour is coming??

I thought that cactus only flowered in the spring??? This is obviously a very clear shot and a lovely macro of a very beautiful plant. Thanks :)PJ

Ouch. If I was to put my lips around my lips, I think I would be spitting spikes for a decade after. This is a lovely capture and thank you for sharing it.
