zooming around the field
This? Oh, just me playing around with long exposure but with no tripod. You know, the way I do sometimes.

secrets of the heart
The face is the mirror of the mind, and eyes without speaking confess the secrets of the heart.

And here’s our young friend Mr. Dylan, looking pensively out onto the street that runs in front of his place there in Tulsa.

the narrowest stairs
Lots of cities still utilize their Union Stations as, you know, train stations. Tulsa is not one of them (the building is still there, but it’s private office space).
Instead of getting to see a nice train station interior, I looked at the graffiti-embellished and abandoned-looking space under the building. I was lucky enough to spot this extremely narrow stairway, nicely lit by the morning sun.

This is just a block away from my office, so I drive by it often. And for some reason, April 16 was the day I noticed it and recognized it for what it was: a photographic opportunity. So on April 17 I brought my camera to work.
(I also spent some time that day driving around, seeking a particular body shop that I had very specific recollections of. My memories were that it was a corrugated metal building, that it had an unevenly-painted business name right on the metal, that there was a car – an old Impala? – parked in front, that it was on my right as I faced east. I never found it. I looked until I gave up. And that’s when I remembered a particularly vivid dream about being out photographing. So maybe that elusive body shop was just a dream?)
(Welcome to my brain – it’s weird in there.)
