Tuesdays of Texture – Week 13
“Ouch!”
“Touch has a memory.”
― John Keats
Here is my entry for Del Monte Y Mar’s Tuesdays of Texture Challenge Week 15 of 2017.
A very brief post for today’s texture and a cliche title. I’m feeling a bit unoriginal right now and really, this cactus had the longest needles, proportionally, that I have ever seen. I would dread bumping into this by accident.
I made the image while on a recent trip to San Jose del Cabo, Mexico and the gardens around the town are filled with cacti. Not surprising, given that this region of Mexico is primarily desert.

Love this photo, and how the spikes look metallic.
Thank you, a trick of the light.
Love the tilt shift in this, or the sweet spot I should say. The light is quite perfect too. Thanks for sharing this in Tuesdays of Texture and have a great week!
