We came across this bike shop on one of our walks around Austin, and the colors and repeating subject matter drew us in. The two dozen orange bicycles were impossible to ignore and the mellow, yellow tables and chairs were cool too. Never Stop Exploring!

We’ve been juicing for a dozen years, and love the antioxidant buzz we get from downing a big glass of fresh-blended roots, fruits, and veggies. Numerous studies have proven that the consumption of vegetables and fruits is correlated to a lower incidence of chronic disease. Drinking vegetable and fruit juice is an efficient way to

The Skyline in Austin’s been in a state flux for quite awhile. We were there recently and counted well over a dozen cranes erecting new buildings. Austin has a lot more land set aside for parks and recreation than Dallas and Houston though, and we enjoyed ourselves the week we were there walking all over

Johnny Cash is a legend and one of our musical heroes, so while we were hanging out in Austin recently we just had to mosey on down to the “Mean-Eyed Cat Bar” for a beer. We headed that way on one of our morning walks and found our way there just shy of noon. But

The Wind finally allowed Double Cross and I out onto “The Dirt” for the first time this Spring. Springtime is the windiest season on the High Plains, as Mother Earth begins to warm up from the cold, dark Winter. Winter doesn’t give up easily here though, in fact, the forecast says it’s going to snow
The Colorado River flows, right through the center of downtown Austin, (it doesn’t actually flow, it’s a lake behind a dam) so bridges are plentiful. There aren’t enough during rush hour though when everyone is leaving the city for the burbs, but it’s not a problem if you’re walking. There’s one bridge set aside for

I enjoy getting out at night and shooting long exposures but it’s complicated and takes some preparation so I don’t do it as often as I would like. Everything fell into place recently though while we were hanging out in Austin. Here are a couple of neon shots, one with the Austin skyline and the

We made it back to the little cottage on the High Plains the other day after spending much of the Winter down South. We were hoping Spring would be here waiting for us but alas, we were not so lucky; it’s April and there’s a snowdrift in the backyard. We get an occasional Spring day,
We were out for the morning walk and just happened to walk past a gathering of the local Lamborghini club, so we slowed down and I snapped a couple of shots with my handy iPhone Mini. They were so colorful, that I couldn’t resist so here’s an extra image for this week. 2+ for Tuesday.

Birds are the focus this Tuesday. There are so many different birds that live along the Texas Gulf Coast that multiple Field Guides are required to determine genus and species. Some though are ubiquitous and easy to identify, like the Pelican in the first shot. The second shot is an Egret, another large and easily

Docks are the subject in this Tuesday’s image pair. Piers and docks aren’t just fish holding magnets or places to tie up boats, they make for interesting photography. Pilings come in many configurations, cast interesting shadows and offer numerous setups. And docks are always in the water, which reflects and refracts, making it a favorite

This weeks images are from Clear Lake, Texas. Boats are big in Clear Lake and I like boats. Boats are adventure, whether it’s sailing the high seas, rafting a wild river or fishing the flats. When I was young, one of my dreams was being a sailor man and full timing on my own sailboat,

I’m trying something new with “Two for Tuesday.” Photography’s a passion of mine and I’ve diligently worked on the craft for forty years or so and still enjoy learning and trying new things . It occurred to me that with high quality cameras in billions of phones, the world’s already littered with images. Why clutter
