Oh Thank Heaven

Slurpee's from 7-Eleven weren't exactly the first beverage of choice being consumed over the weekend's Saint Patrick's Parade on Greenville Avenue in Dallas.

Floral Fireworks

Thu, 11 Mar 2010 22:00:12 -0800

The vibrant tentacles remind me of a sea anemone reaching out.
(Sorry, I saw this in a flower arrangement and I have no idea of the name of the plant.)

Longing for Summer

Tue, 23 Feb 2010 06:26:51 -0800

No sooner than I posted the previous photo than it seems winter returned and now we are receiving a dusting of snow. With today's post I am resorting to archives from a warmer moment featuring colorful bougainvillea plant.

Pacific War Museum

Thu, 18 Feb 2010 08:54:18 -0800

A big museum in a small town, the National Museum of the Pacific War in Fredericksburg, Texas is remarkable in how it tells the story of World War II on the Pacific front. I highly recommend a visit.

Palo Pinto County

Fri, 5 Feb 2010 07:30:05 -0800

Some are 'prettier' than others, but I like to photograph Texas' 254 County Courthouses - a goal is to document every one - anyway, I pass by this one for Palo Pinto County and winter is the only time you can really get a good view of the building without foliage in the pecan trees.

Basalt Cliff

Running horizontally through this landscape (along the cliff) is a wide-angle view of the half-million year old columnar basalt featured in the previous photograph.

Walking on the Edge

Thu, 17 Dec 2009 23:00:18 -0800

A cliff of columnar basalt across from Tower Falls in Yellowstone National Park; large floods of basalt lava preceded mega-eruptions of superheated ash and pumice 500,000 years ago. These cliffs are a textbook example of a basaltic lava flow with their well defined joints and hexagonal columns.

Unless you are a hardcore thrill seeker you would not want to be on a kayak or canoe at this mark of the river - just out of frame to the left of the scene is the summit of where it becomes a very tall waterfall.

Dallas' brand new 11-story Wyly Theatre. It is the first 'vertical' theatre ever built - the entire inside is 'stacked' allowing the venue to be arranged in countless configurations. The design and architecture is quite remarkable. More information can be found here and here.

The outside is clad in tubular aluminum to suggest folds of a theatre curtain. It is situated directly across the street from the Winspear Opera House.
