the finest hat

I saw this well-dressed person at the art trail the other night; they were in line at a food truck and I sure didn’t want to delay their dinner by getting a photograph.

Then, a half-hour or so later – there they were again. And this time, the background was a perfect match for the excellent outfit.

And you know what happened next.

the ranch

Y’all! I did a thing that was SO RUDE.

I ignored my “real” camera, all set up on a tripod and patiently waiting for me to decide what I was going to photograph. And instead, I went ahead and used my phone camera to get this shot. It just goes to show.

18 and 7 are down for the count

I have a thing for photographing laundromats. I have no idea why – it’s just a subject that frequently captures my eye.

Combine that with my well-know affinity for photographing abandoned places and it’ll get you this image from an out-of-business place I spotted in Louisiana a few years ago.

What’s left of a cool neon sign – but its neon-y days are gone and seem unlikely to return…

meanwhile at the beer monster

My friend’s adorable daughters have renamed this place the Beer Monster; the name is based on a mural by the front door.

But no matter what you call it, this is an excellent spot for some craft beer. And you are very likely to run into someone you know and/or spot a food truck with something delicious to eat. And the days are (finally) getting cooler.

You know what to do with this information.
