Beavertail pink

Back blips Tucson Architecture #1 and #2

I saw this flower, which was on a beavertail prickly pear cactus, on my neighborhood walk this morning.  I never noticed this particular cactus around here so was glad it was in bloom.  Rather than a straight flower, I applied an acrylic filter on it.  Most of the filters I use are in a program called Topaz Studio 2.  It's free and I recommend it.  

I'm gradually catching up with my blips.  I feel a sense of freedom because I don't panic if I don't have a blip.  There will be times I use an EB, like I did with the shoe several days ago, mostly because I have something I need to write. But I'm not going to drive up my blood pressure if I haven't taken a photo that day.
