A ocotillo and its surrounding desert earth is illuminated by moonlight.
Campers can pitch a tent anywhere in the wilderness near the primitive Borrego Springs Desert Gardens campsite.
The bright waxing gibbous moonlight drowns out the light of the dim stars but allows for a caputre of brighter stars in constellations like Orion and Taurus.
Away from the moonlight, fainter stars glow.
The mountains and moon and desert stars.
A close up on a waxing gibbous moon.
