Sunset Over The Santa Catalina Mountains After a Rainy Day — Image by kenne
Desert-Luminous
Rain darkens the foothills,
but the sunset slips through a break in the clouds —
a copper flare brushing the Catalinas
as if the mountains were being forged anew.

On This Rainy Day — Image by kenne
On This Rainy Day. . .
. . . I share the following:
. . . he went his way,
Down among the Lost People like Dante, down
To the stinking fosse where the injured
Lead the ugly life of the rejected.
And showed us what evil is: not as we thought
Deeds that must be punished, but our lack of faith,
Our dishonest mood of denial,
The concupiscence of he oppressor.
And if something of the autocratic pose,
The paternal strictness he distrusted, still
Clung to his utterance and features,
It was a protective imitation
For one who lived among enemies so long:
If often he was wrong and at times absurd,
To us he is no more a person
Now but a whole climate of opinion. . . .
— from In Memory of Sigmund Freud by W.H. Auden

Looks Like Rain — Image by kenne
Looks like rain
we can only hope
here in the desert
where rain drys
before hitting ground.

Clouds Over The Catalinas — Image by kenne
The first month of the monsoon has not been good for Tanuri Ridge. It seems as if it has been raining
only somewhere else. For the month of July, we have received only about an inch.

Surphur Butterflies on Creosole Bush Blossoms In Sabino Canyon (July 27, 2021) — Images by kenne
The recent monsoon rains have greened up the canyon, bringing out a lot of butterflies.
Unfortunately, I only had my 18-70 mm lens, so trying to photograph
the mostly surphur butterflies became challenging.

Rain Clouds At Sunset — Image by kenne
rain clouds at sunset
talk of rain coming
creeks and washes dry
talk of rain coming
maybe not today
talk of rain coming
maybe tomorrow
talk of rain coming
rain clouds without rain
talk of rain coming
talk of rain coming
talk. . .
