Flowering agave (6 images)

This is the same Agave inflorescence on Orange Coast College's campus that Greg and I took pictures of back in early March. This gallery's pictures are from approximately a month later (in early April), when it was starting to fully bloom. It was stunning in the early morning light, when the just-risen sun lit the flowers head-on.
