Enjoy!

Big Jack!
When I was out storm chasing near Pampa today - i thought I saw a dog (about the size of your average cocker spaniel) walking through the tall grass. I focused my camera on it -thinking it might be a coyote and was surprised to see it was a jack rabbit! This was the biggest rabbit I have ever seen. Unfortunately, there is nothing in the photo to give it scale - but it was huge - and as a result -unafraid.
A great e-book about tornadoes for your kids!

Poor little ugly dude
He has a face only a mother Starling could love. I found him on my balcony this morning squawking loudly. After taking his portrait, I put on a glove and returned him to the nest in the eave he fell out of. I hope he's okay. I saw two of his dead siblings in the yard below my apartment.

The Dog Rescuer...
A young fireman emerges from a house clutching a dog who was left inside when it caught fire. The fire was caused by a man who was free-basing cocaine next door catching two houses on fire.

Evening drive ...
I just love the Texas Panhandle. It is such a mixture of city and country, sky and land, tamed and wild - all within a few minutes of my humble abode.
In five minutes I can be in a place with the growing city at my back and an amazing pristine sun setting in front of me.
Last night I decided to take advantage of the wonderful weather and drive around Loop 335 that circles our city.
As usual- I brought along my camera and in just the span of an hour I took over 150 photos - the best of which are attached.
So next time the spring weather beckons, and you don't want to spend another evening bored-silly watching the tube- grab your camera and get out .
Open your eyes to the photographic possibilities and suddenly you'll start seeing things that you normally wouldn't have seen.

Balcony posers
I'm surprised how the birds on my balcony are getting so conditioned to my presence. I can now sit on the deck about 5 feet away and they don't seem to care as long as I don't make any sudden movements.

Startled Starling:
This Starling was feeding, unaware I was there until he heard the click of my shutter. He squawked at me and flew away.

Water Crossing #5 1986
Here's another negative scan. Water crossing #5 in Palo Duro Canyon-circa 1986.
Green Peppers in Black & White
I was going through an old box of black & white negatives (1980s) when i found this still life I shot many, many years ago. I scanned it in and it made a lovely print. I kind of miss shooting with film, the wide latitude-not the mess or expense.
