So transpiring across the upper #wildwest in four states is a massive early snowstorm dropping the temperature in a rush towards winter while down here in #SouthernArizona I enjoy a morning at 72 degrees Fahrenheit with a high today nearing 90 degrees. Note to self: never live where orange trees don’t grow! 🌵 . Just 48 hours ago I snapped this photo with the @fujifilmx_us #XT100 and I’m loving this little camera and using it to snap the #SonoraDesert of #Arizona. This type of cactus is a #JumpingCholla also known as a #HangingFruitCholla. It’s one of my favorite cactuses down here and of course it makes beautiful silhouettes! :) (at Apache Junction, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3Cwwq_Felg/?igshid=yf0at21cj4xd

The infinite beauty of the #SonoranDesert and it’s staircases of immense life teaming in this beautiful #wasteland reflects the eternal depths of the universe and the never ending. It’s a microcosm of the timelessness of which I dream about daily! The early mornings and evenings in #SaguaroNationalPark burn into my memory never to be forgotten... ►◄►◄►◄►◄►◄►◄►◄►◄►◄►◄►◄►◄►◄►◄►◄►◄►◄►◄► #tucson #jumpingcholla #saguarobokeh #sunlit #sonora #igarizona #arizonagram #arizonaphotographer #arizonalove #arizonalife (at Saguaro National Park)

There NEVER has been such a contribution quite like Western Culture on the beauty of the wild Southwest; Power Lines and Stop Lights mixed in with Saguaros and let’s not forget the White Man’s HOAs combined with all these singing buzzing wires. Thank you, for everything that is truly invasive of this Sacred Sonoran Desert at the hands and will of your powerful bottomless greed… . #whitemanshoas #colonialgreed #jumpingcholla #sonorandesert #desertsouthwest #destroyersofbeauty #scottsdaleart #artinscottsdale #artcollecting (at Scottsdale, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/CichVaOreZj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
