And Then There Were Four
Posted by Will under backyarchaeology, nature
What a gift! Tonight the San Pedro cactus rewarded us with the launching of one, two, three,four blooms at once. But no, I did not set up the cam and laptop to go timelapse on the quartet, instead just opting for a single shot of the group (click to quadruplify):
The blossom I did capture opening up in slo-wo is the one extending out the right side of the frame. Apparently and some what sadly these flowers are one-night-only wonders as that first one hasn’t reopened since its big debut August 16.
