I'm a bit obsessed with the saguaros at Waffle House in Marana, Arizona.
When taking the pictures, it was as though I were invited in, as though the cacti were showing their true selves on short notice, as though the camera in my hands were operating itself. Sounds odd, but then it felt rather odd, almost ecstatic.

I love these cacti! And I'm familiar with the ecstasy of a subject that grabs the photographer. It becomes very close to a meditation.

Thanks, Janis. I never thought of it that way.
I was nearly as drawn to your flame-colored amaryllis, but it was a shyer subject.
