Sentinel of Stone

from $350.00

I captured this image as storm clouds gathered over the desert, leaving Agathla Peak — a formation sacred to the Navajo — ablaze in fleeting light. Rising from the land with a presence both commanding and eternal, it stands as a guardian of memory and meaning.

It is a portrait of endurance and contrast — the immovable against the shifting, stone against storm. A reminder that in places revered for generations, beauty is not just in what we see, but in what the land itself holds.
