Fancy Dress
I have a thing for store windows that are filled with (sometimes) headless mannequins wearing fluffy dresses.
See Roswell, New Mexico, Dodge City, Kansas, Lubbock, Texas, or Abilene, Texas, for a few examples.

the night window
This? A simple scene that I drove by, noticed, kept driving for eight more blocks, then made a complicated series of turns to get back to. I don’t know that this result was *necessarily* worth the effort, but dammit: after all that work I was committed to posting the resulting image. Sometimes* I am stubborn that way.

*Always. I am always stubborn that way.
Rolled, stored, and forgotten
So, I pulled off the road to photograph a falling-down wooden building. It offered only marginal photographically-interesting things, so I wandered around a bit more and then found this. I made the photo because of that rolled up thing in the corner, but between when I made it and when I wrote this post, I changed my mind: now my favorite part is the scars on the metal wall, which speak to generations of various kinds of farm equipment banging into the wall.

José, 1958
On one corner of this cemetery, there was a huge black marble marker. It was taller than me and I am sure they needed a sizeable crane to lift it into place. I didn’t photograph it.
But this tiny marker? I loved it.
