this ought to have been in Brownfield
We are right in the middle of what I like to call the Truth in Naming Belt: we’ve got towns called Levelland, Brownfield, Shallowater, Earth, Plainview, Plains, Sundown. And those names are accurate.
Anyway, although I spotted this practically monochromatic scene in Littlefield, I sort of think it needs to be in Brownfield…

what the hell
Y’all. Y’ALL!!
I was making a series of photos of this plastic curtain waving in the breeze (at a place I assumed was abandoned because context clues) when a person (holy shit: a person!!) pulled back the curtain and looked at me.
No words. Not then, not now.

tulle + stilts
If you’ve ever seen me walk, you know that I not generally all that graceful or coordinated. I would have benefitted from having gone to dance lessons as a kid. Probably.
So it was with great awe that I saw a person on stilts, walking on a brick street right in front of a moving vehicle. And while all that was going on, she was smiling and waving to the crowd.
