Cactus focus. Succulent ceremony. You won’t get pricked if you take a peek, or gashed for a gawk. Stare safely, no stab scare necessary.

Not all of these are actual cactuses (or cacti if you would). I can’t name all of them but you can probably recognize the majestic saguaro, the barrel cactus, the cholla and Joshua tree (not a cactus and also not an actual tree). If you know any of the other names, help me out in the comments!

The photos were taken in Arizona and California.
