to frame the sky
Yes, this is a u-turn shot: the sign slide past before my brain registered how cool that hole was. But as soon as it caught up, I turned around to get the shot. I had to. (Also: I had to do it in color. Trust me: I tried a black and white version but the image just insisted on being in color.)

Stay Off
I did what the spray-painted warning told me: I stayed off the private property. (There was nothing said about not making a photograph.)
This is the last of the snow pictures; you’re probably relieved. But don’t you wonder what tomorrow will bring?

Fuel and Sunset
The light and colors are delicate. The reality is much more harsh and unforgiving.

Snow/Bike
Another day of snow meant another day of me getting out in it to take some photos. Most of the photos I made on this particular morning were for a (this sounds weird but is the actual, honest-to-God truth) corporate client I’ve just gotten.* While I was out working on that project, I saw a lone bicycle across the way. And I knew it was worthy of an image.

Texas Rising
This piece, from Texas Tech University’s acclaimed public art program is called “Texas Rising,” created by artists Blessing Hancock and Joe O’Connell. The stars are lit from the inside, which looks lovely at night. But they also look nice in the daytime when the snow’s coming down.
