From the maker:
"The sun begins to set slowly behind the mesa blazing purple-orange streaks across the sky. Just as it disappears, a long shadow grows across the ground, drawing your eyes back down to the auburn earth. Sitting directly between your dusty boots a strange glimmering plant makes itself known. Carefully reaching down to investigate, you find its spines are as soft as the light coming off of it. You shovel the dirt around it, placing it delicately into the outer-most pocket of your backpack as you walk back to your tent."
