Under the Oak

Cruising Alvin looking at all the big oak trees, I spied this swing and chair under one of the big trees. The house in the background with a flag is a bonus.

Small town America-
As I cruised Alvin, Texas a couple of mornings ago, I spied this chair and swing under one of Alvin's big oak trees. The house with the flag was a bonus.

One of the fun things you can do with dumpr.net , a free photo manipulation program.
Makes it look like one of my photos is in The Contemporary Art Museum.

Gnarly Old Tree

This old tree in Sealy Park here in Alvin, Texas looks old and dead, but I think it is just waiting for spring to bloom again. I will watch it and photograph it again when it does.

Photo from last week

As I passed an antique store, I caught a glimpse of an old mirror leaning against the wall. The mirror didn't interest me, but the reflection did. Around the block I went, and captured this shot.

Fungus on Oak

It may seem weird, but I often find great photos in the most unusual places. This fungus on an oak tree was called to my attention by a friend, so I went out early this morning to catch the morning sunshine as it struck the fungus. I like the effect of the fungus cascading into the light. What do you think?
