Took a couple of photographs of my Bulbine mesembryanthoides subsp. mesembryanthoides (Ben in short) with a phone camera, but one actually looks decent, so here it is!

Endeavouring to grow Aylostera, Echinocereus, Echinopsis, Gymnocalycium, Matucana, Rebutia, and Sulcorebutia. Fallen out of love with Lithops and aggravated by Aeoniums.
Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs.

the close up was 130ish
the extreme close up was 70ish

What is a "shawe!" ?

And this would be my mobile keyboard being (not so) funny and brain just skimming through the written message...

A shave is what it needs!

Not Celebrating .... my Celebration is showing no signs despite flowers in abundance last year. But thanks for sharing.
