Thank you all so much! This was photographed two days before the hurricane blew through late last summer. I borrowed the lighting idea (a flashlight held behind the flower) from another poster in the epi's plantfiles entry. I took several dozen photos, but this one stands out.

This was my epi's first bloom.

Thank you everyone for your kind words!

-Joe
