Something happened last weekend that hadn't happened in a long time . . .

Driving back to Dallas from Austin. Just get into view of the skyline. See black smoke. Stop. A house fire. Thankfully, the 70-ish-year-old owner is not home, but I'm afraid he'll be quite sad when he gets there. Neighbors try to fight the blaze with garden hoses. A noble but futile effort.

colors so deep they are felt, touched, tasted . . .

Recently I shot some images for Jason Boso, a man who, for reasons of upholding my dignity, I shall only refer to as an acquaintance. But really--the dude has good food. If you find yourself in Deep Ellum one day, check it out. Twisted Root or Cowboy Chow. Either will suffice.
