B&W Photo contest -- Macro - Entry 3 - A night flower

This is not a strange see creature. It is a flower, that blooms only a night.
For this reason, it is very difficult to photograph it from the technical point of view. I used an external light, backlighted it and a tripod.

This plant is quite common in Venezuela and I have it in my garden. It is known as Bella de la noche, and in English as Queen of the night it scientific name is Epiphyllum oxypetalum.
If you would like to know more about this flower, here is the Wikipedia link.

This is my third and last entry for the photography contest B & W Photo Contest -- Macro ran by Hive account@daveks and sponsored by Hive account@papa-pepper.

My previous entries in this contest are: 1 and 2.
