Pluto’s Nose
Tucson Mountain Park, Arizona
2024
This angle on the new little saguaro “bud” had me thinking of Pluto (Disney’s, not the dwarf planet), or maybe Goofy. But speaking of the dwarf planet, I’ve never been happy about it’s demotion. That it used to be a full-fledged planet but is now a dwarf planet even though it hasn’t changed at all comes across as some oddball form of astronomical inverse shrinkflation.
