Caesalpinias

In Tucson at my parents’ house. Backyard at 6 am. Before 6 is when their neighborhood comes alive–people walking and visiting in driveways. When it’s only 80 degrees.

Solstice wind

Brush fire

I was burning some brush this morning, while the wind was still. I didn’t calculate that the stillness would cause the smoke to settle like fog in our neighborhood. While fretting about the nuisance I was causing our neighbors, I nevertheless noticed that the sun coming through the smoke was kind of pretty.
