On the trail beside the fence
Pines breathe in the breeze

Marine Blue Butterflies — Image by kenne

The marine blue butterfly wears
its colors like a living watercolor,

drifting between gray and blue
as it dances through the air,

each turn of its wings
creating a new masterpiece of light.

The Outer Banks -- Photo-artistry by kenne

Salt air, sand, and wind -

the OuterBanks keep their song,

old as the moon's pull.

West Texas Wind Turbines   Leave a comment

Photo-aritistry by kenne

The mountains stand ancient and unmoving
while the turbine blades
spin endlessly in the West Texas breeze.

This photo-artistry composition
celebrates the contrast between
permanence and motion,

stone and sky,
past and future.

The Dirt Floor Become A Canvas   Leave a comment

Image by kenne

Through weathered boards,
sunlight slips in thin ribbons,
laying shadows on the earth below.
The dirt floor becomes a canvas
where light and darkness sketch
their fleeting masterpiece.

Hummingbird On Nest   3 comments

Anna's Hummingbird On Nest -- Image by kenne

A branch, a nest, a bird.
Nothing more is needed.
Spider silk binds the walls,
lichen softens the edges.
The Anna's hummingbird rests there,
breathing with the rhythm of the desert morning.




Another Beautiful Desert Sunrise   Leave a comment

Night loosens its grip.

A thin blade of light
slides along the Rincons,
touching rock,
touching thorn.

The saguaros stand silent,
holding the cold
of a thousand dawns.

Above them,
the dark sky remembers blue.

She Asked To Hike In Sabino Canyon With Us   2 comments

A Desire to Hike In Sabino Canyon — Image by kenne

She was visiting from Eastern Europe
and wanted to see the desert on foot.
Sabino Canyon unfolded before her step by step—
a landscape of stone, cactus, and sky—
while friendship bridged the miles between our worlds.


Desert Sentinel Atop A Desert Giant   Leave a comment

A desert sentinel atop a desert giant—
cactus wren and saguaro share the morning.
The artistic background softens the edges of the world,
leaving only the essentials: bird, cactus, sky, and w
onder.

Sonoran Sunset -- Image by kenne

The mountains darken, but above them
red, orange, and yellow gather
like old spirits around a fire,
warming the vast desert silence
one final time before night.

Saguaro Sunrise In the Canyon -- Image by kenne

Sabino Canyon at sunrise, stripped to monochrome—
the saguaro becomes an old witness,
arms raised through a hundred dawns,
telling the mountains
that silence is enough.
