I am trying to make myself take photos of people. It is not anything that comes naturally to me, but I am committed to becoming a better photographer, to expanding my boundaries, and all that stuff.

This kid made it really easy – he saw my camera and asked me if I’d like to take a picture of his microgreens. I made a counter offer: that I make a photo of the microgreens (he was very proud of them) with him in it.

And this is what that looked like.

Passenger

Did you notice? This is the third time in six days that I’ve had a person in my image.

Traffic Patterns

This? Oh just killing time at Gate 7 while I waited to board the flight home. (I almost never get bored at airports.)

The Neighbors, Sunday morning

It was early in the morning and the lights were on over at the neighbors’ place.

Dallas, in the distance and through streaky windows

When I was getting ready to make this photo, I was wishing that someone had washed the hotel windows recently. I didn’t care for the streaks on the glass or the way they interfered with the photo I wanted. But as sometimes happens, the things I disliked the most ended up being (to me) important to the image. They remind me of cartoon stink lines radiating up from the distant skyline.
