El Paso: UTEP: Berries Blue

Brother4 came by for a visit the other day.

We strolled through UTEP's Chihuahuan Desert Gardens, which is a strip of serenity within the campus. Little alcoves designed for contemplation. Water features with subtle sounds like quiet rainfall. Reminded me of the Dwan Light Sanctuary in Montezuma, New Mexico, for its thoughtful attention to how visitors might enter quiet reflection.

Lantana bushes with orange flowers and metallic blue berries invited me to draw closer.

Alas, I didn't get a decent photo of the oranges and blues together, but the berries are stand-alone beautiful.
