Cactus bloom very beautiful but if you want to take a picture you better do it today as the flower will be gone tomorrow, the have a very short lifespan.
Your skill with the camera is tops Mike.
Your talent in post processing, in my opinion, is outstanding and should be regarded as the gold standard for everyone else to work towards.
These images demonstrate both.

All are beautiful, Mike, but the first one is just spectacular. Great color contrasts, perfect composition, huge visual interest and appeal, with the swirling design of the cactus spines. That's the one for the wall.
Great work from a master photographer. You never fail to catch the best of whatever you shoot. Kudos.
