soft flower in a red sunset
It didn’t seem like the sunset was going to be anything spectacular. But then the sky was gold and yellow and red and there were mammatus clouds.
And yucca flowers, bathed in the surreal light.

A room at the golf course’s clubhouse caught my attention.
But, honestly, the thing that really caught my eye was the sign on the door next to this room. It said “Ladie’s Locker” and the whole thing is too depressing to post, so you’ve got this instead.

This is Bennett. She plays all the sports. For a while her goal was to run a marathon; that lasted until she heard about ultra marathons and she upgraded the goal.
In the meantime, she plays golf and soccer and basketball and volleyball. She doesn’t walk if she can run. Her career ambition is to be an astronaut and her auxiliary career plan is to be a professional soccer player.

The great thing about my real job is that I can do it from practically anywhere. And I’m set to get some work done at my little country place, should I ever need to. I mean, a couple of pencils and a highlighter are just about all you need, right?

Maybe you know that I’ve spent the better part of the last two years working on a documentary project; it covers the entire length of Route 66 and I made just shy of 7,000 black and white images.
Later this week, my collaborator – the Oklahoma photographer VC Torneden – and I will have an exhibit of a few of these images. It’s called The Other Side and will be at the Charles Adams Gallery in Lubbock through the end of the month. Stop by, if you get a chance.
And all of that was to say that I sort of got burned out on black and white images. I love black and white and have built my photographic career (such as it is) on being a strong monochrome shooter.
So, I’m pivoting to color, and that’s all you’ll see from me for the entirety of the month.
You’ve been warned.
