Distant mountains, glimpsed through a palo verde tree, Sonoran Desert, Southern Arizona
 


tangled in the shade
of a gnarly desert tree—
trembling little dove

    Great shot of the tree. When we lived in the desert (Brawley, CA) and traveled to L.A. we would often stop at “the tree” along the way – not many trees in the desert – but glorious when you see one.

    Swirling wonderfulness of the tree trunk. You have captured a surprisingly complex scene. Very beautiful.

    A desert relative of the Ents, maybe?
