8331 Beavertail Cactus Flower in Joshua Tree National Park in Soutthern California, May, 2005. The vibrant red stamen (male) surround the cream-colored pistil (female), and insects carry the pollen to different flowers. This cactus is living in a dry wash and the angle of the early morning sunlight leaves the background in shadow. Stillness pervades the landscape - it is so peaceful here.
