Irons in the Fire…
Seems these days I have alot of Irons in the Fire. So much so that I look at the lists of what I NEED to do; What I would LIKE to do; What I HAVE to do, and wonder where to start. I haven’t updated the “Blahg” in awhile due to job hunting and stressing. Other than that I’ve managed a blurb or two on Facebook or a Tweet here and there on Twitter . So, Just how many social networking sites can one belong to? I…

Georgetown Market Days…
Georgetown Texas Market Days went very well today with booths consisting of clothing, artwork, leather goods, handicrafts and lots of wonderful things. Cher’s Creations from Round Rock features hand made custom wreaths and floral arrangements with no two being alike. Silver Mallet Productions has hand tooled leather goods such as wallets, belts, and a whole score of other items. Today’s Market Days had the theme of “In the Pink” in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness. The next Market will be November 14th, “A Season of Giving”. This…

Competition…
I love photography and it is a huge part of how I keep my sanity in these troubled times. Image Copyright © 2009, Barrett Photo Art These seagulls all have one thing in common. They all the want the piece of bread I have in my hand. (I know – I conned them in to a photo op). Such is what I’m finding in the job market. There are now more people than ever competeting for that same piece of bread than ever before and I’m becoming…

Lightning…
I’m not a big fan of lightning. It’s powerful. It’s fun to watch from the safety of indoors (unless of course it blows up the transformer across the street, then it gets more on the frightening side). I searched the internet to find out how to photograph this wonder and decided to try it. The storm was so bad there was lightning every 10 seconds or so, therefor there was no question as to where to point to the camera. Image Copyright © 2009, Barrett Photo Art…

Peer Pressure…
I remember when I was young and how sometimes my mouth would override my abilities. I was taken down memory lane here recently when I watched as my grandson told a lovely little girl how he could make it across the monkey bars. He had not taken in to account his physical limitations as he had already traversed the bars several times before. But THIS time would be the one to impress the ladies. The trip that counted. The one that mattered as it would win hearts.…

Central Texas Rain…
I’m so glad it rained. There is so much to see and do after a heavy downpour (other than dry off). I noticed my grandson’s bicycle had fallen over in the storm. Image Copyright © 2009, Barrett Photo Art Now you may be thinking that’s a shadow under the bicycle but it looks like God decided to draw on my porch. Image Copyright © 2009, Barrett Photo Art There on the pavement was the perfect outline of the bicycle like Peter Pan’s lost shadow. Well, after being…

Old Buildings…
I love old buildings and small towns. It makes me wonder what it must have been like way back in the day when the town was growing up. Downtown Lockhart, Texas is a good example. There are alot of wonderful places to explore in that town. I think a great thing to do is to stop in a small town and go exploring. You never know what you will find around the corner. The alley ways are interesting. Faded signs and relics of a day gone by. …

All is Quiet…
It’s the end of the day. The floors are swept. The lights turned out. All have left. The streets fall silent as the night takes over. It’s time to sleep now. Image Copyright © Barrett Photo Art The quiet is nice at the end of a long day. The bench sits quietly waiting for morning when the customers will come and chat and people-watch and await their turn at the City Barber Shop in Georgetown, Texas. Peace, Love, and Time for Bed,

Georgetown Texas…
I live in Georgetown, Texas North of Austin. I worked in Austin and commuted 47 miles to work. I count that as a blessing as now I have the opportunity to find work in the town I love and live in. Image Copyright © Barrett Photo Art They have a wonderful downtown square that is very active! Restaraunts, shops, boutiques, and an active theater that puts on fantastic plays! It has been so long since I’ve seen a live play and it’s quite an experience to watch.…
