Photography allows the viewer to decend to a level of detail that's difficult to share in any other way. Walking through our neighborhood, you might look over at this cactus from twenty or thirty feet and perhaps comment on the color of the flower.

Mike - Deer took out my tomato plants the first day they were planted, so i'm not surprised
Mike,
I over sleep and almost mised this. Love the top one!
Bill
You are such a tease!!! I am a huge fan of flowers and sunsets and with each post you only serve to force me to tell hubby we're going to Tuscon on our next vacation! LOL But he doesn't mind ... he likes to travel.
Thanks for sharing the elegant and beautiful specimen. It's amazing!
Very nice photo sir and a good explination of how mother nature takes care of a problem.
Mike, it is so totally amazing that something so prickley could produce something so beautiful!
Hi Mike: Your close up detail shots are amazing.
:)
My resolution to visit Tucson when it cools off again is growing.
Ann,
Fantastic! We just received our July 2009 issue of Arizona Highways, and Flagstaff is featured throughout the magazine! There's some very interesting stuff.
Matt,
Thanks for stopping by to comment! My darlin' loves that closeup shot of the flower too.
Marchel,
Isn't it?! We love the desert southwest!
Don,
The desert animals love to eat most anything that doesn't have stickers. They avoid the spines, but enjoy the flowers and the fruit of the cactus.
Carol,
I'm going to be disappointed if you don't follow through! So come on down!
Bill,
I'm glad you didn't miss it! (I owe you a phone call to finish up where we left off.)
Larry,
I hope you planted more tomatoes!

Mike - I continue to be amazed at the beauty of the blossoms that dwell in the desert! This one is astounding!
Wow I didn't realize cactus could produce such beautiful flowers! That top shot is awesome! What's the diameter on a flower like that?
Chanda panda
Chanda panda,
It's as big as your hand with your fingers outstretched!
Myrl,
Yes it is! And it comes in white, yellow, and deep red as well!

Mike,
The desert seem to be the place for some breathtaking flowers. Great close-up photos! Have a great week!
Mike,
Great! A cactus with character...!!! Thanks, Fran
Fran,
It's just downright beautiful!
Gerry,
Thanks for stopping by and being the encouraging guy that you are!
Mike in Tucson
Wow! Once again you have captured a beautiful moment in time. (literally, I guess, since it was eaten)
Was this on manual or auto focus? Does your camera have a macro setting? Did you use a tripod? Flash? What time of day? Don't ask, these questions just popped into my head.
Doreen,
Auto focus. Macro setting. No tripod. No flash. Early evening. And it was a (brief) moment in time.
Mike in Tucson
Mike - You do such beautiful work! How do you keep a record of all your blogs? There has to be a book or a series of magazine articles there that you can capitalize on.
JD,
Guess I need an agent... Look on the right hand side of this page, and you'll see the archives by month and year. I sure enjoy doing it.
Brother Mike
