A little context
Here’s a little context for that image from yesterday. Because I thought you’d want to know.

Shiny, shiny trailer
I saw this out on the highway, at one of the the truck-and-trailer dealers, and went back out there the next day to get make photos. There was so much chrome! And it was so hard to stay out of the reflection!

Last week’s roses
I had a little reception at my house last month for my good friend Brett Erickson, who’d been the juror for a photography show at the Buddy Holly Center. My friend Janet did the food and decorations for it. She’s amazing, and turned my vintage dinnerware into vases, which she filled with some of most beautiful roses ever.
And, a week later, the roses were fading but still beautiful.

Overhang
One more shot from this magnificent place – the canyon and lake are below, the city of Lubbock is in the distance, and rain will shortly wash all of it.

Into the nose of the storm
I went inside this place once. A man (whom I now believe was Robert Bruno himself) was sitting in the shade eating a sandwich. He invited us in to look around.
The part of the house on the right of the image hangs above the rim of a small canyon, with a lake below. We were there before glass had been installed, so the room was filled with updrafts off the water below and it felt like we were flying.
It was the first time I understood the place.

And, no, I did not have a conversation with the man. This was a couple of decades ago, before I’d become un-shy. It is a significant missed opportunity.
