Ghosts’ Dinner
If you thought yesterday’s reflections were something, check out what’s going on here. Even the reflections have reflections, and it adds up to an almost ghostly dining room.

Really, though, what’s the point of even getting this close to an abandoned business if you don’t try and have some fun shooting reflections?

Crenellated (with lights)
If you think about Lubbock at all – and, really, why would you? – you probably don’t think about it as a location for castles, with towers topped with crenellation (to make it easier to fend off attackers!), do you?
And yet, here we are.
Not really! This is just some goofy thing built on the corner of a golf course office/clubhouse down the street from my house. I am pretty sure that underneath the stonework and fancy stuff, it’s just a regular metal building.

Shade structure, with bird
Here’s another view of the driving range that I first photographed back in December. If you judged our local weather only on these images, you’d think we had clouds all the time.
But, really, cloudy days are infrequent. I promise.

Flight, as the rain approaches
These birds. There are literally (maybe) millions of them around here. They roost overnight in any tree they can find, and they don’t mind being close together: any given tree will have hundreds of them. I don’t know where they go in the day, but the ground below their trees is marked with a white layer of birdshit.
But when they are settling in for the night, a combination of approaching storms and photographers will cause them to take flight again.
