Description
"Welcome the rich afternoon light as shadows lengthen.
Wonder in the glory of evening skies when our sun’s rays grace clouds with sublime color"
This sunset helped inspire these words that became the opening lines to my poem "Welcome The Light". Photographs such as this capture a brief moment of time; the last rays of the setting sun as they color passing desert clouds. It also captures the grandeur of the Sonoran Desert as it once was at the end of one winter.
In the many years since this photograph was made, the ongoing exceptional drought of the American Southwest has claimed the two towering giant saguaro cactus silhouetted against the fiery sky. The time a new saguaro could grow to take their place is measured in centuries. I am blessed and humbled to have witnessed this magnificent scene and grateful to be able to preserve it with my camera.
This photograph is formatted in the traditional 1:3 ratio for panoramic scenes, and is intended to make a bold, colorful statement where dramatic and wide artwork is needed to fulfill a difficult design requirement.
