surveillance
I know you are aware that I have a thing for photographing things reflected in windows. I am charmed by the way the camera sees it differently than my eyes do. And I’m enchanted the way reflections layer themselves with the non-reflections, weaving all of it into something that seems *almost* real.

where is thy sting?
A grave marked by a barbed-wire cross somehow seems more raw, more tragic than if the marker had been a plain white one.

This was one of those photos that I sort of thought I noticed when I walked by but it didn’t quite register in my brain. But then that little voice – the one that’s way smarter than I am – said, “Seriously? You’re just going to keep walking? Are you even for real?”*
So I turned around and made a photo.

*That voice is a total wise-ass.
soap (small batch)
So, the thing is that now that I’m back from my weekend in San Saba and writing posts, I realize that I ought to have made time to go inside the San Saba Soap Company, instead of just photographing it in the early light. They have a whole line of soap and skin care products made from pecan oil – that would have been something I’d’ve paid for. I guess I’ll just have to go back. Check out their website and then start planning your own trip.

It’s not like I’m breaking any photographic or creative ground here, but this caught my eye and I was unable to walk on without…well, you know.
