A little under the weather yesterday and today so I didn’t wander far for today’s photo.
This is a macro shot of the ribs on Golden Barrel spines. Most cactus spines have them.
Here’s a wide shot.

fencepost
What appear to be very large red spines on this Mexican Fencepost are in actuality only between 1/16th and 1/4th of an inch. Pretty good photo considering I’m shooting hand held with my Canon S5. Many Canon point and shoots have a “Super Macro” mode that lets you get incredibly close.
soaked
The red spines of this Barrel Cactus are an indication of the great soaking rain we had last night.
