My son, Daniel, turned 16 years old a couple weeks ago so I wanted to do a “Super 16″ photo session. Our original plans for this past Saturday evening got postponed due to stormy weather, but we did have a few minutes of fun at the Grapevine train depot. The session was shot under cloudy [...]

Sleeping

While getting into position for the Fort Worth Twilight shot, we came upon this homeless man sleeping on an elevated platform. He was obviously resting well because none of our activity and talking roused him. It was as if he felt completely safe and secure away from the hustle and bustle of the downtown area, [...]

Here’s one more from Six Flags. This time it’s the Shock Wave. Ride this one just once, and you’ll know how it earned its name.

A friend of mine and myself went to the Texas Rangers-Tampa Bay Rays baseball game Friday night (we were blessed with free tickets and decent seats). This is a wide-angle shot made with my Canon PowerShot SD870 IS pocket camera. Unfortunately, the Rangers lost the game.
