anxieties

It’s not enough that the dog has anxieties, but I had to go and not even get his WHOLE FACE in the photo. How rude of me. I mean, I’m not like the biggest dog-lover you’ll ever see, but I still feel bad about my actions.

I only hope the dog is anxious to the point where his human keeps him away from social media so he won’t know what I did.

Where I live, in Texas, there really aren’t any streets that could be called walkable. It’s dumb.
But check this out: a walkable street that has a nicely-lighted building and a conveniently placed pedestrian.

second-story man

I really don’t have the faintest idea what that guy was doing up there – the one standing in front of the red window. It’s not like it was a balcony. It’s not like it was balcony weather. I just don’t know. It may have had something to do with the spirit merchant on the ground floor or it might not have. Other than that guy, I suspect that no one else knows. Or even noticed what was going on.

It was one of those reflex photos – I saw it and made the shot without taking time to do stuff like composing it or anything. The moment was there and then it was gone, possibly because a bus drove by.

tiny rivers

The only reason I saw these tiny rivers easing their way from the puddle behind them is that I sat in the drizzle and took some time to look around me. You know: just being a photographer.

“espresso shots”

Yikes! There’s a lot going on here. But my favorite (and the reason for the photo) is the paper plate that’s serving as a sign on the wall of this bakery.

But I do wonder what exactly is the difference between regular espresso shots and their offer of “espresso shots.”
