A beautiful rich red cactus, draping its flowers over our neighbours' (L and P) front stairs is a sight worth stopping to look at as you walk past. To my delight I was invited over to enjoy and photograph these stunning blooms which have a pinky glow in the sunlight.
Love the cascade of stamens from the green centre, reminds me of a waterfall.
Loving the vivid colours combined with amazing structures, I believe we have a very creative God.

Que privilégio termos um Deus quefaz coisas tão lindas, vizinhos que tem estas flores no jardim, alguém que fotografa tão bem, para mostrar para nós estas maravilhas.
(Salmos 19:1) - OS céus declaram a glória de Deus e o firmamento anuncia a obra das suas mãos.
The flowers are absolutely stunning! Thank you for bringing to life with your camera! Smiles~Beth
