Shooting Alpine photography contest
I am happy to announce that my photograph Balcony (Holland Hotel) was selected as a semifinalist in the annual Shooting Alpine competition.
If you are going to be in Alpine, Texas, this Friday and Saturday for the ARTWALK, you can see a photo slide show of the winners, finalists, semifinalists and other entries will be on display at GALERIA SIBLEY (103 W. Holland Ave). Otherwise, you can see it here.
PS – Thanks to my friend Mary Angel, who reminded me that I ought to enter!
I don’t know what it is, but it is nearby
Yes. It’s right here. Somewhere. Maybe behind a fence post. Or under that tree over there on the left. Or hidden in the weeds along the dirt road. Anyway, it’s close. The sign says so.

“It was never as photogenic as it is now.”
“It was never as photogenic as it is now.”
That’s what one of my regular commentors said about one of my blog posts recently. I took to that phrase right away: it seems to sum up a great deal of my work, and my own ideas about what is or isn’t photogenic. There are few things that I like to photograph more than old places like this, once grand, maybe, but now forgotten and giving in to gravity.
I don’t know for sure what this place used to be, but my guess is that it was once a hotel. (If my research department wants to look into this a little bit, I will offer this: it is on the corner of West 13th Street and North Nelson Street.)

Right here in Amarillo
Sometimes there’s just nothing for me to add.
This is one of those times.
