Love how the backlighting highlights those wee protuberances around the perimeter of the nopal, Chris. Also the graceful appearance of the lighter-colored protuberances on the flat side of the nopal facing us. The purples in the background and also the purple reflecting off the foreground branch provide a really nice contrast to the greens.
 
I didn't need to look at this. Adorama screwed up and didn't cancel my order. It shipped yesterday. I called them and they said : "Oopsy..." Actually they were pretty nice about it and are trying to reroute back to them with UPS.

Oh...AWESOME PHOTO!!!!!!!!!!!!! Really stunningly beautiful.
 
Now I know what a nopal is - thanks to Brian and Chris - and I thought it meant having no friends...

Brilliant shot, Chris. It's on fire!
