Description

Epiphyllum ackermannii from the family or orchid cactus one butt ugly cactus 3/4 or the year but when he is in blooms its just WOW the flowers are pretty big and intense red allthough on this picture I did a bit of fake HDR effect, for the original colour look at my other photo. I tweaked the colour balance and the colour curve and the contrast a bit to make it look more intense. As I worked on a duplicated layer, in the end after working on the colour balance and contrast I erased to have the green part have its natural colour again. As you can see on the thumb I didnt do much as the red is already naturally very intense.
