There's a place out near the First Water Trailhead on the Tonto National Forest where a mature cholla garden exists. There are many varieties of cholla in the Sonoran Desert, but the largest is the tree-like chain-fruit cholla (Opuntia fulgida). Its branches are covered in sections of extremely sharp and barbed spikes, while also bearing "chains" of spineless fruit enjoyed by native wildlife such as mule deer and bighorn sheep-- and also by the cattle that range on many open desert allotments.
I thought it'd be kind of neat to contrast the sharpness of its spines with a soft, out of focus background--including the stars.
