do what, now?

I swear, for the longest time I thought this said “Young Sins.”

Perhaps a different, more legible, font would have been a strong decision.

capitol reflection

If there’s a subject that’s lately captured my attention, it would be reflections of things. I like the way the make the distinct indistinct, the way the camera sees things that my eyes and brain edit out, the way reality becomes indistinct.

And so, here I present the Colorado state capitol dome reflected in a big window at the Denver Art Museum.

I just can’t help myself: no matter how many abandoned businesses I spot in my travels, I still have to photograph them. I guess when I see a new one and DON’T want to get an photo of it, I’ll know the photography gig is over…

I had to run a little errand over to New Mexico the other day, so naturally I took my camera with me. And look what I found! Yet another photograph-worthy window reflection. (It’s sort of like an obsession, really.) An observant pedestrian stopped while I made the image, but she looked extremely confused about what was going on, which is not all that shocking, if I’m being honest. Normal people probably really don’t stand a few feet from a building and take a photo of it when there’s a whole world going on just across the street!

As is it turns out, San Saba is the pecan capital of the world*, so it’s easy to find things with pecan-themed names.

And that’s how it happened that I sat in the Papershell** Bar and had an old fashioned made with pecan bitters.
