Cactus Bloom
Yesterday afternoon I wanted to take my camera for a walk in a nearby garden park. It's a great location. Lot of plants year round and they attract wildlife. My purpose was to dial in my auto focus settings after a firmware update for the camera plus I have a new lens to get accustom to. So I only took the 500mm lens and off I went. And what is the first thing I see that would be an interesting subject. A cactus in bloom. Totally unexpected. We have been having a very mild winter, but his is pretty early to see these blooms. A 500 mm is way long a focal length for flower photography... but you use what whatever you brought.
