Close-up of Cactus Flower

I really like macro photos and this one has details that are quite interesting.

It almost looks like a piece of art.

I took this photo of the cactus flower blooming while I was hiking in Saguaro National Monument Park.

This week, the photos on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site features the Volcano on the Big Island of Hawaii.

I often think of cactus flowers as being waxy looking and this photo really highlights that waxy nature.
