Sunset on the Desert
Additional Details:
Fantastic scenes, mirages, and sunsets of great beauty are rare charms of the desert. The great variety of cactus shown in this picture are, left to right-the cholla, bisnaga or nigger-head, ocatillo or devil's coach-whip, palmas or prickly-pear, giant sahuaro, and at the extreme right the barrell cactus. All are fortified with thorns as tho for the preservation of their lives-everything on the desert does battle for an existence |
