I'm not sure I've ever used the word whimsical before, to be honest. But it sure applies to this photo, Becky. Love it.

Hi Tim,

Thank you for your comment about my Epiphyllum hookeri photo. The day I took the photo, I actually DID do a double-take. And then I laughed and went into my house and got my camera. The hookeri foliage gets really long sometimes and just the area that it was growing in made a pretty unusual photo. It made the facepot lady look like it had arms coming out from it. Talk about reaching out and touching someone! It did graze my face and hair when I walked too close to it. Hilarious!

Thank you for taking the time to comment on my photo! I truly appreciate it!
~Becky~
