After photographing this guy and listening to his story, he said ‘Thanks for making my day.’ At a time when I’m fighting my own cynicism constantly these little interactions give me hope.

This saguaro got hit by a car and broke apart 8 months or so ago and is still blooming on the ground. Desert plants are wild y’all 🌵

Really proud of our team that worked on this story. Worth a watch if you have the time.
