I have this plant in my balcony(something like “cactoid”) but i don’t know the name or the family. Yesterday night i deside to have some shots (again after 2 years) with the flower,because it’s very interesting.Blooms one week per year. I’ve used flash on camera with the head turned up (you know why). In the table i just put a blue page A4. No tripod. Everything happened very quickly.I act like a commando when i’m shooting flowers ,and many images gives the sense of the studio, but they are not.(this is balcony!) :-) :-)) :-))) Fuji S3pro, Nikon 60mm Macro,Nikon SB-28DX. Then Photoshop and Redynamix. If somebody recognize this flower and know the name please tell me via comment or BM. I hope you like it!! Best view LARGE
