• Siobhan, your opening image reminds me of snow at it's best, before it becomes dirty or melted. But we don't often picture it on a cactus, which makes a wonderful image. Your beach image made me imagine the cold of a wintry day in Oregon - the texture is perfect.

  • Thanks, Tina! Yes, snow accumulating on cactus makes a great opportunity for photos. The seaside picture was taken in July, but it was COLD! Still a nice place to visit, no matter the season. :)

• Beautifully expressed and photographed Siobhan

  • Thanks, Sarah! A fun challenge.

• I certainly would not want to put my hand into that first image. Beautiful photos SB. Thank you.

  • Thanks, Jude! Yeah, we use extra long tweezers to weed around the cactus. 🙂🌵

• Love each one!

  • Thank you, Jessica!

    • You’re welcome.

• Great textures. Excellent.

  • Thank you, John! 😁

• Beautiful images - all of them. The first one a stunner and your Oregon beach perfect in both colours and textures.

  • Thank you, Ann-Christine! It was a good challenge this week.

• Beautiful texture selections! Love the last one especially. :)

  • Thank you, Amy! Lots of wonderful texture and color in Utah.

• Great first shot - haven't experience cacti in snow before.

  • Thanks. I keep thinking the snow and cold temps will kill my cactus, but they keep getting bigger. 😐 Not sure how to prune them. 🌵
