Cactus Flowers


During our visit to Phoenix, we got a few glipses of some cactus flowers while hiking along the North Mountain trails. A very tiny cactus with super-long spikes displayed a pretty pink flower (above) and a barrel cactus (below) had a top crown of yellow flowers,

Below is a panoramic view of Phoenix taken from the trail.

Cactus flowers are so stunning! That smog is kind of yukky though. Messing up an otherwise beautiful scene.
