A cereal-bowl-sized desert tortoise peeks out from beneath a bush, side face and shell profile.

Sacred Datura sits in the foreground with the sun lighting its bright, undulating continuous flower (no petals, just a gorgeous skirt of white).

I continue to be surprised seeing these things around my #desert home in late October... Desert #tortoises are usually holing back up by now & #SacredDatura blooms (usually) in July.

Datura looking especially Sacred. A special reminder that amongst all the chaos, flowers still bloom. #hope #sacreddatura #makingitthrough

“The Aztecs used it 4 ritual sacrifice and malevolent purposes.
In modern-day Mexico, some datura species are still used for sorcery & other occult practices, mostly in the southern region of Veracruz, specifically in the city of Catemaco”

Could not have imagined how stunning this first Sacred Datura bloom would be, which came from a hitchhiker in a native rose I purchased last winter. Like a soft pillowy bed, luring one in. Bees, I envy you. #sacreddatura #plantgeeking #nativeplantsfightclimatechange

A newly opened sacred datura foregrounds yesterday's bloom. Instead of collapsing in the usual way, it folded up slowly due to unusually cool and cloudy weather. #datura #sacreddatura #nightbloomer #art #arizonaartist #phoenix #coralfountain

Mercifully cool for a Cinco de Mayo in Phoenix. Last night's datura are as happy about it as I am. #datura #sacreddatura #phoenix #desertgardening #sonorandesert #cereus #coralfountain #totempolecactus #yellowbell #tacomastans #gardens

Lush green shrubs and grasses grow among red rock formations, with trees and vibrant foliage surrounding the area.

A closeup of a white flower in soft focus, featuring delicate petals and a visible stamen at its center against a blurred background.

A stunning landscape showcases red rock formations rising above lush green vegetation near a winding river.

A dramatic black-and-white landscape featuring towering cliffs and steep rock formations amidst desert greenery and clear skies.

Spent a day in Zion National Park earlier this year. #ZionNP #sacreddatura #landscapephotography #blackandwhite #desertphotography
