So the North Texas Photography Explorers MeetUp Group and the Dallas Photography MeetUp Group met up for a joint MeetUp tonight to shoot streaking taillights, ’cause everybody needs a streaky taillight shot, right? Right?!? Right?!?!?!?!? Indeed. So this is the most disorienting one I made. I wish I’d taken the 10-24. But last weekend at the …

365.246 dream of flight
So I shot a bit on the way home today. I didn’t get anything good, except for this shot, which isn’t particularly brilliant or anything, but appeared to have some possibilities, so I started playing around. If you look closely, there’s a strange sort of border or frame around this. This comes courtesy of a …
365.245 Ohne Titel
I came up with several brilliant titles for this, each more evocative than the last. But in the end, you’re the one looking at it (or, more likely, not), and so you’re the one that gets to title it. Is it a magic crystal from one or another of the video games, books, stories, movies, …

365.238 not today
I don’t know if it’s something(s) that I ate, or the bs texts I got from a buddy (about nothing of any consequence) last night that brought up a bunch of stuff I put away many years ago, or the beautiful weather, or what, but I feel emotionally wretched today, and really have no desire …
365.233 from a dream
When I was younger, from the time I can remember, up through my mid 20s, I had a recurring dream every time started to get sick. The dream always preceded the illness by a day or two, so it was likely triggered by the immune system waking up. I was in my late teens before …
