Oops, didn't do a very good job on focusing close, but at least half the flower is in focus : ) The flowers of the Christmas Cactus are so pretty when looked at from underneath. Sorry, everyone, I'm not getting a chance to comment much at all this week, thanks mainly to taking part in quite a few Bird Counts that are out of the city. They go from very early morning to late afternoon/early evening and I'm functioning (barely!) on two or three hours of sleep a night. I should have a chance to collapse for a day on Wednesday, but then I have two or three more busy Count days. By 5th January, I should have more time to do other things - phew!
