Sunset and Flowers

I have a cactus that is very ordinary--most of the time--but once a year it has these beautiful, large pink & white flowers. The only problem is that they only bloom for about 2 days, and they start blooming in the evening, so I have to be pretty quick to catch them. This year I think we had the most flowers at one time--14! They start out as little fuzzy things and then gradually grow to be about 3-4 inches long and then the flower blooms on the end. This year I took pictures for a few days to show what it looks like in the process. I also took a pretty sunset in January and took some pictures of our greenhouse and Don's bamboo.
