Got out to my house in Arizona late last night. Woke up to gloomy stormy weather this morning (of course when it has just turned beautiful in NY ). At one point between showers the light got really nice and when I looked outside I saw a flower on my favorite cactus. It is called an Argentine Giant - the flowers are HUGE 8" in diameter and they only last for a day (seriously first opening at night and dead the next night). Last spring I made a ton of pictures of them however I was devastated that I had to leave town when there were 27 buds ready to open a day later. Well this is really late in the season for one to bloom but the GRD2 was handy. These are all shot on Macro mode. The first shot is full frame NO cropping the second one has a minimal crop!
On the other hand these flowers are probably about 1/2 wide....these colors are accurate and the two different purples are from 2 different bushes
