After a coin toss (Heads, Zomb-E Series; Tails, Tokina), I took the Tokina out for another stroll around the neighborhood. Together, we stalked this squirrel for a couple of minutes, and then shot a bunch of trees and flowers, and a bit of spray paint… I don’t know about you, but it looks to me …

365.109 A bit past its prime, perhaps, but still beautiful
It was cloudy all day, except for a brief bit where the sun peeked its head out from behind the clouds and said hello. I saw it waving, and quickly hooked up the Tokina 35-200 and ran outside for a mostly cloudy neighborhood photowalk and Tokina test. Of course, by the time I found a …

365.108 @ Ciclovía Dallas
I attended the Ciclovía Dallas on the Houston Street Viaduct today (for those of you in the New York metropolitan area, this ‘Houston’ is pronounced ‘Hyoo-stun’ and not like the Houston (‘Howsden’) Street in lower Manhattan…) as a nominal part of the North Texas Photo Explorers Meetup Group (though I didn’t see any of the group, …
365.107 Interesting Blooms
I shot a bit of Real Estate today, and these flowers were blooming nicely on the front walk, so I grabbed a shot. Lucky I did, since I didn’t make the time to shoot any more today. Shame on me. I’m not too impressed with this shot, but I do like the buds and former …
365.106 El Paisano Hotel, Marfa TX, 6am
As it must happen, the first cloudless morning was the morning I was leaving. Luckily, I awoke early enough to finish packing the car and shoot some stars. No real luck with the stars, but I did make this panorama of the front—or side, I guess, though this is where I entered and exited—and I …
365.105 Racing Skyward
I enjoyed my first good night’s sleep since last Thursday (the last night I slept in my own apartment, in my own bed), and woke up at my usual—if wildly unreasonable—time: 4am. I did doze a bit, but was up and atom by 5, tripod grabbed from the trunk and remote release forgotten in the room …
365.104 Lightning, perhaps
After an early morning photowalk around town and a nice breakfast with Momma, I pulled out of Marfa around 9am and drove north to Balmorhea (and the wildly underwhelming Balmorhea State Park, with its artesian spring-fed swimming pool that was ‘closed until further notice’ and RV-friendly campsites), then back south through Fort Davis and the …
