Whilst making a cup of breakfast tea this morning I noticed the Cactus on the Kitchen window ledge had flowered overnight for Remembrance Day. Got 300mm lens out and ultraviolet filter on to capture it in the morning sun.

Epiphyllum crenatum, the Crenate Orchid Cactus, is a species of cactus and one of the most important parents in creating the Epiphyllum-hybrids commonly cultivated throughout the world. It is cultivated for its beautiful diurnal flowers.
