Sunset gilds the colorless-by-day desert in jeweled shadows and glowing highlights. Plants that droop in the scorching heat revive as the sun lowers toward the horizon. Ocotillo stalks tipped with scarlet blossoms bridge the gap between earth and sky, and yellow prickly pear flowers open wide in celebration of the evening's cooling.
This landscape looks toward the Chisos Mountains of Big Bend from across the Chihuahuan Desert beneath Terlingua Ghost Town.
