Bloom Baby, Bloom!

Uploaded: September 02, 2010

Description


One of my potted cacti. It had bloomed a couple of times this summer and I thought it was done. But NO - I found it bursting with 9 flowers last week! There are clumps of 2 and 3 that are hard to see towards the right and back.

Thanks for looking!

Exif: F Number: 5.6, Exposure Bias Value: 2.67, ExposureTime: 1/320 seconds, Flash: did not fire., ISO: 400, White balance: Manual white balance, FocalLength: 105.00 mm, Model: NIKON D700

Every month, with our camera in hand, we go out and find what we hope will be the “winning photo.”
Those of us that don’t get recognized, just continue to search for that special image, until one day the Congratulations come pouring in from some of the best artist and friends anyone could image.
So to the Better Photo winners for the month of September, I congratulate you on a job so well done.
My very best to all of you, Merna Nobile
