"Mountain ball" cactus blooming - time lapse

Pediocactus simpsonii in bloom.  The flowers open in sunlight and close in shadow.

Mammalaria Cactus in bloom

Every year the last week in May into the first week in June, this cactus blooms here at 6800 feet.

Bad Lands - very, very bad - in a good way.

Some photos from the Bisti - De Na Zin Wilderness area outside Farmington, NM.

Trying to do time-lapse from a short sequence of only a few frames - a bit choppy.
