City Centre

Met friends at City Centre to complete our long exposure project of fire and water.  These delightfully cooler temps have arrived with some winds; enough to intermittently blow out the firepots.  Met a wonderful couple and snapped a few shots of them as they enjoyed a night out.

City Centre

This quote was sent to me by a friend.   "You don't make a photograph just with a camera. You bring to the act of photography all of the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved."  Ansel Adams

Shown through my lens are a few of the scenes and the people who were enjoying a moment at City Centre.

Fire

We are working on a project involving fire and water with long exposures.  It sounds very simple until factors such as light, wind, rain and humans are also involved.  Here are some of the first results.

Water Wall

We had a fun evening in The Galleria area.  We saw Peter Lik Gallery, enjoyed good company and dinner, saw Mike Marvins Big Bend exhibit in the Williams Tower and topped off the evening with photography at the water wall.  Life is good.

On The Ice

Sometimes you see a person who makes it look so easy, natural and graceful.  Like so many areas of life, some practice and repetition is first required.

Zoo

A few more zoo photos.  It was too hot to see much activity from the big cats.

Birds at the zoo

We had a fun day at the zoo, albeit it was a steamy hot afternoon.  These are some of the good, bad and ugly birds we encountered.
