I’ve never tried pinhole photography before. I made one from a body cap and an aluminum can.

Photographing spider webs are cool to in the right light. Not seeing them, and walking into them, not so much.

At the same car wash, I saw some mud boots. One pair on the driveway and this pair next to the Smokeless cigarettes.
I did also see a hoodie, down the way too. I didn’t know what was next, so I decided to turn around!

A few days ago we took an unexpected trip to South Texas. It was a lengthy trip in hours so we spent the night. While the others were getting ready, I took a stroll to the car wash next door. Funny what you can find when casually walking around.
In my opinion, the best cigarettes are the ones that can’t be smoked.

In downtown Plano, the Christmas tree was still full of lights and bows. Instead of the normal shot, I tried to zoom and capture with slower shutter to create sort of an abstract.
It would have been better if I had my tripod, but I think it worked OK.
Wonder what Santa would think?
I was looking back through some of my old pictures I took with my first digital camera and came across this one. It turned out to be a “Happy Accident” abstract.
The colors are balloons from the fourth of July at a local Minor league baseball game before the firework show.

It seems like I tend to take a lot of pictures of flowers. This is no exception. As I was sitting on the back porch one Saturday afternoon, the sun was shining through the back of this Hibiscus flower.
It may make it to a printed photo one of these days!
Earlier in the spring we took a quick trip to East Texas. Coming back home we crossed Lake Tawakoni.
Before we crossed there was a little park, but coming out on the road I couldn’t pass up this shot.
Its a good thing they put this bridge here. Where else would they put all those signs?
Also, does the water curve underneath a bridge or is this an optical illusion?
I took this picture a few weeks ago of a Peace Lily on our back porch. I’m trying my hand at selective soft focus. Abstract if you will.
