Early Morning Foggy Traffic…
Slow, yet very busy day. The fog this morning was eerily beautiful with the sun coming up. Now that I’ve seen the morning fog it makes me want to get up earlier and see what I can photograph. Though, I believe I’ll save it for a day off when I’m not so hurried and can take the time appreciate it. Well, I’m off to bed as I have to do this all again tomorrow. Enjoy your day and thank you for stopping by. Peace, Love, and Foggy…

Out in the Country…
What a wonderful day this turned out to be! It didn’t start out very well but I decided to just get out and wander. The sun was out and it wasn’t too cold and I just decided to take a county road to see what I could see. I don’t know why it is that I’m always ‘looking for a picture’. I don’t know how to describe it other than when I saw this bunch, I hit the brakes. They were just standing there staring looking like…

Pride in Workmanship…
You know? There is alot of awesome architecture around Austin, Texas and what I guess you would call the “I-35 Corridor. But take a closer look at the photograph below. When I saw this all I could say was “Really?”… I wonder what happened. Either the shorter people called in sick or maybe a shift in the earth’s crust? I understand there is a fine line to what can be considered ‘artistic license’ – is that what that is? Can you imagine running down this fire escape…

Acts of Kindness…
I just had to share this story because, well, it just restores my faith in the world. I also just wanted to say God Bless Southwest Airlines for the caliber of pilots and employees they have on their staff. Imagine being a greiving grandfather trying to catch a flight to see your grandson one last time. The line getting through security is stupidly long and you fear there is no way you are going to make your flight. I don’t want to ruin the story so I’ll…

Favorite Things…
I know I’m behind but boy can life get busy sometimes. Of course I was struggling with what I could possibly write about and then I remembered an impulse I had. I was in Starbucks (rarely but I treat myself once in awhile) and I saw this coffee cup. I had to have this coffee cup. I literally saw myself relaxing with my photographs drinking coffee out of this coffee cup. It was large enough – it said “Austin Starbucks Coffee” on it and had a guitar…

The Highway…
I realized that in alot of my “drive by shooting” I take alot of photographs of highways. I guess that’s because I’m ‘driving’ at the time I take the picture but something about overpasses and the open road draws me. I have no idea if it has to do with their architecture or design. Or the way they seem to be getting higher in the sky these days. The patterns and lines they form – the traffic that moves along them (sometimes agonizingly slowly). Not to mention…

Time…
I can’t help but feel overwhelmed at times with all I’m in to. I mean with work, blahgging (as I call it), photography, and trying to keep up with things. Something went wonky with the blog yesterday. I was receiving this error whenever I tried to upload an image to the ‘blahg’. So I googled the error message- found several ideas on how to fix it. I also found that an error had occurred on the last WordPress update so I re-ran that – and it appears…

I Love Shiney Things…
I was trying to think of what to blog about today and was a little stumped. I see the neighbors are still runinng the sprinkler and turning the tree in their front yard in to an icicle. Well, then WordPress decided it couldn’t resize anything I uploaded so I manually resized it and hopefully can get through today – I still owe a post for the 30 day thing – I may be able to manage (I Hope). Anyway – I discovered I love chrome but I…

Ice Garden?…
The sun came out today (yay!) and I finally was out and about (meetings and things) and got to play around with the camera a little and I wasn’t sure what I would blog about today until I stumbled upon a curious sight. Seems someone forgot to turn the sprinkler off. But then again, it was under 40 degrees outside and wasn’t sure why the folks were waterin’? With the wind blowin’ and all it froze in the tree making for an interesting sight. I also found…

Drive By Shooting…
I know the title sounds serious…but it’s not really. It’s sort of what I call the photographs I get by not taking the time to stop and really TAKE the picture. I just hang the camera out the window and *click* away. Sometimes I get an interesting sort of something I want to keep kind of a photograph. And yet other times, I”m not sure why I kept it…a pattern? The color? A memoriy? I’m not sure. Just something kept me from deleting it. I guess this…
