Don’t just dream

Sometimes the best advice is unsolicited and painted on a wall. Like the one I found in Lubbock last winter. Or this one Ehpem and I found the other day in Victoria.

(Although, if you really want to know, I sure did want to find some spray paint and correct it.)

Alley view (my version)

In response to your question, yes, Ehpem, I did get a shot of this wall in the alley. Thanks for asking.

I liked the XO on top of Ehpem’s storm drain and sort of hope that the X is aligned with the cardinal directions. Perhaps Ehpem – who often serves as my Research Department – can enlighten me.

The sign and the window aren’t all that compatible, size-wise. But that’s OK – it makes a better photo this way.

Again, my thanks to Ehpem – what a great couple of days!

Upon reflection

When Ehpem and I were wandering around making photos, we turned down a brick alley. (We’d just been told it was haunted, so of course we had to go!).

There weren’t any ghosts, as far as we could tell, but there was a dramatic set of reflections in the windows above us.

PS: Want to know something sort of funny? Just yesterday, Ehpem posted a shot made within steps of this one, and wrote about looking up. Great minds think alike. And so do ours.
