Pink really is a cactus color, isn´t it?

Wow, this was a tough choice to make. Almost all my cacti seem to be flowering in the color pink.
I do like the last image of the Echinocereus that Hob placed. What species is that? Also, the two images Buck posted of the Cereus huntingtonianus are amazing and would be worthy of winning this contest.
I did look and discard the following:
Thelocactus bicolor
Echinocereus viereckii
Another Echinocereus pectinatus (a very close call to the one selected)
And finally, three images of Echinocactus horizonthalonius with their hot pink flowers

@Harald they all are show bench flowers. But the ECC pectinatus is the top choice of them all.
Although I would have selected the other one for the contest because it doesn´t have that hard edge of the shade in it as the other one does
@teo: yeah the color blue would norrow down the number of species that come into question quite a bit- at least voting would be easier then
