 Happy Monday and happy new week.  We are supposed to be warmer this week, getting to 60 possibly.  What a difference after all the snow and bitter cold.  Today's image is a bloom on my Christmas Cactus that I took against the refrigerator for a background.  I don't do anything special to my cactus and it reblooms on it's own.

 Happy Monday!  I find these flowers difficult to get an interesting photo of.  I think this one turned out fairly well though.  This is my "Christmas" Cactus that is still putting out some blooms here in March.

I have the plant that is like a Christmas Cactus but it blooms in late spring early summer and the flowers are quite different.  It very rarely blooms but I got a bunch on this bit that I had started in another pot.  I had to kind if shoot this from below towards the ceiling and I liked how it turned out.

We are in quite the cold snap again.  In the house though, my Christmas Cactus is blooming and providing some color.  The proper name for these is Schlumbergera.  I loved this bloom as it was rather perfect and frilly looking.  The flowers on this plant as compared to another I have are more delicate looking.  I took this image last night.

A dreary misty drizzly morning had me dreaming of Spring today.  Fortunately during this time I have some lovely flowers to enjoy.  My Christmas Cactus that sits in a shady west window in my kitchen is in bloom right now.  I took this macro image of one of the blooms yesterday.  Lovely looking flowers, interesting too.
