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?

FOR
My Patient Spouse said, “There are some great storm clouds south of town. Let’s drive out that way so you can take some photos.”
He was right – the clouds were very nice. But I turned my back to them (literally) because I saw this sign. You’d think he’d be used to that sort of behavior by now!

Flyer Club
One of the surprising things around Lubbock, given its reputation as a place without discernible topography, is the canyon that’s to the east of town. (Here’s more information, and that photo titled Yellowhouse Canyon near Slaton, Texas is exactly the view we’ll have from our future house.)
But I digress.
This is the entrance to a now-defunct radio-controled airplane club. At least, that’s what I’ve heard, fourth or fifth hand. But even if that’s not accurate information (the part about the RC planes, I mean, as I am pretty sure whatever was there isn’t in operation any longer) I like how the sign hangs there in the trees and the little caliche road wanders over the hill.

Bench, below
At the first level spot below the rim of the canyon, a narrow and broken bench is weathering away. I check on it often, but it’s never seemed right to drag it back up to the top and try to repair it. I guess it’s more compelling as the subject of photos than it would be as something to sit on.
