Cactus Texture

A couple years back, the desert in my area burned.  Thousands of acres were charred, thousands of cacti died.

The fire and subsequent time have peeled away the skin of some of the cacti.  The amazing veins that usually store life giving water are exposed.

Such an incredibly intricate system.  This is the kind of texture some people would kill to be able to recreate.

Beautiful.

Happy Halloween!
