Filtered Sunlight On A Purple Cactus Blossom

The sun moves.
This cactus was grown under partial shade--why, I don't know.
But it surely did produce a beautiful bloom.
But the wind was blowing the dappled sun around, and every second I saw a new image.
Here are a couple of them.
(Interesting how the wind goes as high as the sun, to blow it all over the sky!)
Angky.

That bloom looks so delicate, I'm glad it has survived the wind. You are right. It changes character as the light catches different parts of the bloom. Different highlights and different looks. Lovely captures of its details under subdued light. Beautiful soft colors. Well done.
