October 7, 20232 yr Popular Post Last shot in Sedona this morning before we headed to Phoenix. Courthouse and Bell Rocks...
October 19, 20232 yr I’m at VMI for the night. Taking my cousin’s boy out to dinner. Here’s a nice statue of George Washington
October 31, 20232 yr Nothing great about this pic other than I’ve been trying to get this fat little tail-less Fox to sit still long enough in my front yard to get a non blurry shot. Finally happened tonight. I know I’ve never seen one without a tail and I doubt I’ve ever seen one that is, apparently, addicted to chili cheeseburgers like this one…

Maybe mix in some statins with that chili cheeseburger to make sure he hangs around a while.
October 31, 20232 yr Dude’s got some junk in da trunk, that’s for sure. I’m dying to know where that tail went.
November 9, 20232 yr I’m sitting here at an early Christmas charity event and J.T. Thomas is sitting here with me.

If you had them make one of this little guy, you'd probably become a millionaire Just now, Longhornstampede said: Edited November 14, 20232 yr by Longhornstampede
November 14, 20232 yr lots of critters... this one was a hangout spot 😄... Swainson's hawk hanging out atop the Denver sundial... another killer sunset... and a nice shot from my 'hood...
November 14, 20232 yr In south Oak Cliff. Any of you olds play on one of these. I remember my mom taking me to a park in Big Spring all the time that had one. No more stairs or ladders on this one.
November 14, 20232 yr Latest jaunt out to Galveston Moon over the beach Thunderstorm looking toward Bolivar Peninsula

I found it was easier said than done to expose for the shadows and burn in the highlights hitting all 11 zones. Adams really was a badass to master that craft. In his autobiography, Adams says that he sometimes reprinted the same image --- dodging and burning various portions ---- a couple of thousand times before being satisfied with the result. So when you're viewing the famous Half Dome photo, keep in mind that it's not the actual photo as his camera perceived it, but the photo as his mind did AFTER he worked on it in the darkroom. I am convinced that, if he lived today, Ansel would be a huge Photoshop guy.

No more stairs or ladders on this one. Didn't they use to have one of these at Hermann Park in Houston? As a kid, I imagined it was enormous and went up the sky. What a disappointment age makes.

Exit of I10 for FM 359, just before turning right to go over the RR tracks, turn/look left past the do-nut shop and there it is. Cool pict BTW!

November 23, 20232 yr Author How much did she cost you???She is likely a prostitute but twice now I have seen her around the hood and she hasn’t given me a sales pitch.
December 6, 20232 yr I dunno, but "She" seems like she has man-like hands and narrow-ish hips, facial features that seem like she could possibly be a dude. Not that there's anything wrong with that...if so.

And the person standing there would give more contrast to the terrain in the background Thanks and yeah good points—I agree! I might play aorund with this in post and see if I can fix some of it. This was one of those snap a pic before I drown in a cloud of midges pics. I was not prepared for the environment. 😂
December 13, 20232 yr fun stuff 😊 Christmas around Denver... this was the hot springs resort we visited last week for our anniversary...
December 13, 20232 yr I like the stitch mode on phones. It can make things wonky, but you can also play with that too
