Cactus Flowers

I noticed five flower buds on the cactus in my yard. Just buds, no flowers, for days. Then at 10am last Sunday I noticed one of the flowers had bloomed, so I went out at took a few shots. But the better light was going to be in the evening when the setting sun would light up the flower from the front, so I decided I'd take more shots later that day. When I arrived home at 4pm it had closed up though, never to be seen again. Moral: shoot now, don't wait.







I wonder if the others didn't bloom during the week when I was work. I'll never know - they've all gone now.
