gold + opals

And here is an example of the kind of jewelry that I would never, for even the tiniest slice of a second, think about wearing.

And here is also an example of the kind of jewelry that I will definitely photograph.

train depot, restroom

If you think it’s weird that I am always watchful for photogenic things in restrooms, maybe this colorful scene from a small train station will change your mind.

Or, maybe it’ll just be further evidence that I am weird.

It could be both of these things, actually, now that I think about it.

I went to grad school in New Orleans, and that’s where I learned that the most enjoyable times (for me) in the French Quarter were early in the morning. It feeds into (1) my dislike of crowds and (2) my interest in seeing the behind-the-scenes parts of things. In NOLA, there was always someone hosing down a sidewalk, which for some reason I liked to watch.

Anyway, the same theory holds on the Riverwalk in San Antonio – an early-morning stroll was empty of people…a nice thing for a photographer like me.

cinderella carriage

This? Just a guy in a horse-drawn carriage in downtown San Antonio. You know, a normal thing that you see. Sometimes.

pottery + door

Even before I got this imaged framed and focused, I knew exactly what I wanted it to look like…and I wanted it to look exactly like this.
