Alleyway Art Gallery

050416

Now, you might have the impression that Levelland, Texas, is without art. In fact, it is known as the City of Mosiacs* and the local artists seem to be branching out a bit, into these nice alley-based pieces. I am lucky because this art is on the way into my office, so I get to see it regularly.

Another photo with people?! This is disturbing, isn’t it?

But sometimes the Photography Gods smile down, and reward you with three people and two plants lined up in such a way that NOT making the shot would be unforgivable.

Water feature

Just one block away from the convention center is a pleasant urban oasis, with trees and flowers and shade and a water feature.

It’s either too late or too early

Evidently I am unable to do simple math in my head. As a result, I arrived at the airport hours (yes, hours!) before my flight was scheduled to depart. That’s the bad and/or embarrassing part of this story.

The good part is that it was so early that I was almost the only one there, which gave me lots of time to make photos.

The gentleman on the bench had been there longer than me, which made me feel a little better about my miscalculation…

The temporary situation

You and I are aware of the photographic potential of something like this. My fellow conference-attender, however, seemed more than a little skeptical as he watched me make this shot. When I was done, he very casually sauntered over to get a closer look at whatever was there. He seemed disappointed.
