Lovely, right? And even cooler, as the day went on, it opened even more:
These always remind me of birds in flight! One of my coworkers asked why I was taking pictures, but most of them agreed with me that this was an exciting event :)
Feel free to get a closer look by clicking on any of the photos. And do check out more macro photography at Macro Monday, hosted by Lisa's Chaos. And of course, more reddish photography at Ruby Tuesday, hosted by MaryT The Teach. Happy Monday and Tuesday, everyone!

I really appreciate the way you're capturing the unfolding of the flower. Just lovely.
Is it a Christmas Cactus? It looks as if it could be. I love the way you've shot it with low saturation ... or desaturated it - very nice!
So pretty! A nice way to brighten up the work day.
These delicate petals are arranged in such a beautiful way. We in the US await the Spring for the budding of such lovely flowers...
Breathtakingly beautifuly photography!!! Gorgeous color of the Christmas Cactus.
My R T is posted early on Monday afternoon...hehehehehe
HERE You'll need to scroll down a bit below my Tuesday's Heads or Tails meme.
You seem to have caught the inner soul of the elusive Christmas cactus.
Mine died weeks before Christmas and I never know when I will see them again.

Your photos all have a wonderful glow. Love the diagonal composition in the first one.
Wow, those are beautiful! And so nicely captured! It's all clear and colourful and awesome. I have a lot to learn about photography. And flowers. They're definitely pretty though. I know that much. :P
Beautiful Christmas cactus closeups.
Happy Ruby Tuesday!
The colour of the blossoms and foliage are exquisite together.
Lovely macro shots!
I really like the ones in the previous post that show your birds in flight analogy.
