Can anyone ID this cactus flower?

I shot this pic about 5 years ago when the cactus in our front yard was fairly young and didn't produce many flowers. It has thrived, grown like Hell and produced a ton of blooms this year. Most of the flowers only open one night and then die after closing following the sunrise.

We had over 30 flowers in full bloom last night and they filled the front yard with the most incredible aroma.

Very pretty. Do you have a better shot of the plant?

Need a shot of the plant itself, but perhaps:

Echinopsis oxygona or another echinopsis - orchid catcus flower.

Different variety, but similarly night blooming...
