Prickly Pear , Division III Non Professional
Prickly Pear
Catching the prickly pear cactus in bloom is an inspiring view. Catching the sun transforming the otherwise ignored plant while it blooms and produces its fruit at varying stages is captivating. Pulling the nuances of color and texture is challenging while equally rewarding. Documenting the stages of color and growth takes an otherwise ordinary plant and transforms it into an object of extraordinary creation.
