Sonoran Desert Photo-artistry by kenne

Through the lens, the cactus leans—
a silhouette in fractured beams,
where golden hour softly spills
on dust-worn hills and silent stills.

Shadows stretch like painted lines,
drawn in ochre, sage, and spine.
Each thorn, a brushstroke held in place
by desert light and endless space.

A vulture glides, its wings mid-frame,
a single shot, a wordless flame.
A saguaro lifts its arms in prayer—
ghosts of heat still hanging there.

Not just a picture, more a spell:
where time and color softly dwell,
and all the desert dares to be
is caught in quiet artistry.
