The graffiti warehouse

My sister showed me to an abandoned warehouse north of town she had modeled bridal pictures at. It is painted up with graffiti and growing natural wildlife. It eventually got dark, so we tried to get out of there ASAP. We are pretty sure we were trespassed to take them..but better to say sorry than ask for permission. My favorite is the first one on the left.




















In my backyard

At my house, we have lights on our trees for parties and stuff. I also saw an old jar sitting on one of our picnic tables, and thought it had interesting photo potential.

Portraits of a little lady

I happen to have a little sister who LOVES to get photographed. I'm training myself to try different types of compositions. This was good portrait practice.

Music that sings

I went to a punk rock concert tour of different bands in McAllen, Texas, and came back with some awesome shots of some of the musicians. This turned out great! I love photography!

Pensive

My sister's little friend thinking on a tree...most likely about our troubled economy.

Shadow and Light

I loved the way the light highlighted his face,and couldn't resist shooting a pic of him. I don't think he noticed..

The Waters of Life

This cool fountain made a great detail shot.

Holy Mammoth!

Mammoths like this one once roamed the lands of South Texas.

Basketball Dreams

I am an alumni of Edinburg North High School in Texas, and went to watch my brother play. Of course, I took my camera with me. These are some of my best shots.





















The train I didn't miss

I played around with depth of field here.

Knocking on Wood


I saw this wooden fence, and thought it had interesting patterns in detail.

It's raining cats and dogs

I've learned that if there's anything people like seeing photos of, it's little kids, animals, and old people. So, I went out and shot pics of my pets: 2 dogs Colt and Red, and Nuggets, a cat we've been taking care of.
