pride

There is no way to stretch one’s imagination to make Lubbock seem progressive. Not even close. Honestly, the place gets on my nerves a lot.

But I was proud to go to Pride and see how many people were there. It did my soul good to see people being themselves, openly and without apology. Because, seriously, why should anyone have to live with apologies for being who they are?

campfire coffee

The photographer I used to be seems like a distant memory. That photographer who would never intentionally photograph people, and instead stuck to ragged buildings and empty landscapes – the photographer I thought I’d be forever – has left. And now I actively seek out places where I can photograph people doing what they do – even if they’re doing it on a very cold morning in Alpine, Texas, to cite just one example.

hope + graffiti

Yep – another drizzly night in Scotland. According to my personal observation, almost ALL nights are drizzly, but to be fair, I was only there for a couple of weeks.

Blue hour, obviously. And I loved the way the sign gave off a warm glow, which was echoed by the light on the second floor of the building.

fountain cleaner

This guy had what looked like an endless task: he was scooping fall leaves out of the fountain. He was doing a good job and all, but it must have been a little disheartening when he stood up and stretched out his back and then saw how many more leaves were still on the trees.
