Now that is an all time fabulous picture Xenomorf!!!
Great pick Kell.
It looks like a tower rising up in the center of a magical landscape on a planet far-far away!

The lighting is especially stunning!
Hey, cool, avatars now!
It was sunlight with a piece of black velvet (If I recall) behind the plant.
Just a stunning photo! The colors are amazing. I do think the blooms of this cactus are especially photogenic looking at all the photos. And in so many colors too. I think I may have to get one of these!
