Rare pierces Posted September 2 #1 Share Posted September 2 Pictures taken between Monday, September 2 and Sunday, September 8. September. From Septem, the seventh month of the Roman calendar. Needless to say, they've added a couple since then. In honor of the former seventh month, let's see if we can crank out at least seven responses to Week 36! Go team! Rules: See above That's it. This isn't a contest. All photos taken this week are welcome (not just cruising). Prizes will not be awarded. Discovering the joy of photography is the prize. The idea is to get folks out using their cameras for more than vacations and toddler birthdays. Post one. Post many. Up to you. Have fun with your camera and share your fun with others!

Rare pierces Posted September 9 Author #2 Share Posted September 9 Our cactus is a Peruvian Apple Cactus. I know this because Google Lens used a picture of it to search the web and identify it. It is not an uncommon cactus, but it has become a sort of family heirloom. The in-laws planted it in the early ‘00s. It fourished and we took a cutting and started a new chapter in its life as a travelling cactus. Its story and blossoms have been the subject of previous Picture-A-Week photos. The short-lived flowers it produces are lovely and are very shy of the sun, opening after sunset and closing up the next morning. If a flower is lucky enough to be pollinated, it will grow into the fruit pictured here. We get very few in a given year, so they are a rare treat. Tough and weathered on the outside, soft and sweet inside. I can relate. Cactus Apple Dave 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
