Bravo.
On relatively clear summer mornings, the first full rays of direct sunlight can be harsh in the Arizona desert. No matter, it often creates wonderful backlighting and contrast. This magnificent Saguaro resides next to a slab of concrete that at one time was an Army Air Field barracks during World War II. The old and dying Mesquite, that wraps around the lower half of this Saguaro, once served as a nurse tree providing shelter and protection during the tenuous early years of this Saguaro’s growth. As often is the case, as the Saguaro grew larger it competed for the same life-sustaining resources needed by its nurse tree. Such is the unique circle of life in the Arizona desert. The nurse tree is slowly killed by the Saguaro it has protected so well.
