    Edit Photo Details Alien Invasion   #nature #blackandwhite #cacti
    Ok they are not really aliens, this is a close up of a cluster of very small cacti. But if you use your imagination they appear to be angry aliens ready to chomp on me and my camera if I get too close.

    This is another image I have not thought about in sometime. Another favorite from my early days on Your Shot. This reminded me of the piranha plants from Super Mario Brothers and I was drawn into the image right away!
