Default Night photos of new blooms!

I was playing in my shade house tonight and took a few night photos of my B. cucullata and C. harrisoniana, both of which are first time bloomers for me.
I was experimenting with the camera, and I hope that the pics are ok.
Oh, the B. cucullata smells great, and there are 4 more buds in various stages of development.

Wow Dave! That cucullata is a knockout! Assuming that is the white one.

David, they're all beautiful and your cucullata is a stunner

Mine is making me crazy...grows but doesn't do much of anything else yet

How are you growing yours?
