DescriptionThis image depicts a large cholla cactus in front of a stone wall in or near Albuquerque, New Mexico. The cholla cactus is fairly tall and is more of a dry brown color as opposed to being green. The wall behind the cactus is made of jagged rocks stacked haphazardly on top of one another and mortared together. Several small bricks can be seen placed randomly within the wall. Above the wall, the tops of several telephone poles and wires are visible.
