This is a cactus, well, probably a succulent, at the Franklin Park Conservatory. I think this is a good example of how the field of view can change the same shot. While the top is attractive, merely because the plant is, the second shot is much more dramatic and pleasing to the eye. The shot goes from, “And here we see the plant in its habitat” to “I would love that in my home”. Especially if it was in a cool purple frame!
Beautiful photos! Such stunning colours, I never knew there were white and puple coloured cacti
Thanks! I agree, who knew? Our conservatory has some pretty great plants! I see something new every time I visit. 😉
Cactus ~ Agave Americana. The Agave Azul is the plant that is used to make tequila. It is prized and very valuable. The American version is an ornamental. Lovely pictures! Thank you.
OOH! Good job! How someone figured out how to make tequila from a cactus is incredible! WOW! I wonder how the The Azul looks. I wonder, is it blueish?
