G'day All,

Cacti have quite spectacular flowers indeed. As with the last photo challenge, I realise that the challenge is in picking which image is the one to display in the competition! Below is a funny reject. It was taken using some wierd lenses we sell in our gift shop. I held it up to my webcam and snapped off an image. I'd love to get one of these lenses and disguise it as an eyepiece...imagine the fun you could have!!

Peter.

Nice shots guys. Stinky I particularly like yours, I can almost hear them calling out for mum. Humayan, until someone pointed it out I had completely missed the bee, nice touch.

Funny how different people see different things, the bee was the first thing I noticed, thought that was what it was all about.

By the way liked the picture.

Hi Chris,

You're right, the bee was the whole point.

Thanks!
