Terri Hendrix’s Guitar
Almost twenty years ago, my friend Darryl called to invite me to a concert; he said the musician was great and would be worth the drive (90 miles, one way). I turned him down, because it was in the middle of the week and I didn’t want to get home that late. Darryl, never one to take no for an answer, kept asking and asking until it was finally easier to give in.
And so it was that on that night in Nazareth, Texas, I became a fan of Terri Hendrix and her music and have followed her career ever since. Recently, she and her musical partner, the incomparable Lloyd Maines stopped by Lubbock to perform at a house concert.
(Another thing that happened at that house concert is that I was called on stage to sing the chorus of the encore song. My singing out loud in public actually violated several local ordinances, mostly dealing with nuisance noises, but I wasn’t arrested or anything. Also, I stood as far away from the mic as I could get.)

The Bottom of the Storm
Sometimes, especially when the sun’s at a low angle, the bottoms of thunderclouds look even more dramatic than the tops of them do.

Window Shopping, 4
Every now and then, I make pictures of stores that aren’t out of business. (I know: that doesn’t sound like me AT ALL. But still…)
This then, is the fourth installment of my sporadic series that I call Window Shopping. You can see the other ones here and here and
here.

Theatre lighting
Yes, I was that person at the theatre the other night using the time before the show to take photos. And to experiment with depth of field. I had to do something other than just SIT there…

I’m not available just now to respond to comments, but leave ’em anyway, if you’re inclined. I’ll respond as soon as I can.
Stored Circles
Remember that time when I said “Art is where art is?”? And I’d found what I considered to be art in a storeroom at an arts center? Well, I stand by that statement – these stored tables were in the very same room.
It’s not too far a stretch from always looking around back to always peeking around a corner, is it?
