South Congress Avenue in downtown Austin is quite a fun place for photography.  While I have often shot this area at sunrise, I recently changed things up a bit and shot in the evening instead.  Here's a few pics to give you a taste of it!  I hope you like neon!

Do you have a particular spot that you just NEVER feel like you get the right opportunity to photograph, yet everyone else DOES?  I had one just like that until recently.  It has eluded me for YEARS, but finally I was able to capture a stunning sunset at The Oasis.  Read on my friends!

Barton Springs Road in Austin is a little gem, with a few interesting little spots to photograph.  Oh yeah, and right around the corner is our natural spring pool, too - another jewel in the crown, so to speak.  Check out these recent sunrise photos and enjoy!

I've been getting in a LOT of shots of Austin lately, for a couple of reasons.  Today I share some of my most recent Austin pics and hint at what I am working on!

This is Avenue B Grocery, which is a really cool old grocery store tucked away on a quiet street in Austin.  It's like walking back into the 1950's or something.  Here are 5 pics I caught at sunrise one morning last Fall.

Austin has so much to shoot, and I am back on the trail of capturing it!  I am also out getting more familiar with my new Sony A7II and share some thoughts about it in today's post.  Read on and enjoy!

I recently bought a new camera - the Sony A7II.  It's incredible, and I am having a lot of fun with it.  Here are a pair of pics from a recent test shoot in Austin.  Oh, and I tease you a little about what I did last week.  Enjoy!

I've got waterfalls for you today!  As you have probably heard on the news (even nationally), Austin has been hit with a serious amount of rain and flooding lately.  While there have been tragic events due to the flooding, the silver lining is that we are getting our lakes filled back up and our creeks have water in them - both of which are badly needed.  Today I share a collection of pics from a recent outing here in Austin, when I went out to shoot some waterfalls!

I love signs and graffiti - and sunset, 'natch! - and caught all 3 on a recent outing here in Austin.  It's great to travel and shoot in various spots around the world, but it's also great to shoot interesting things near home.  It's easier to get there, too LOL!

Austin is a great town to live in - just ask anybody.  But it's also a great town to take photos in.  I've been doing that for years, but all of these were just collecting virtual dust in my library.  So I dusted them off, polished them up, and now they are presentable.  :-)  I hope you enjoy this little visual tour of Austin as much as I enjoyed taking the shots!

Sometimes you find yourself in absolutely the wrong place when the sunset decides to get all awesome.  It's a real drag, but hey what can you do about it?  Well, I'll tell you what I do.  I shoot like crazy.  What if it's the best sunset you've seen in ages?  You can't just pack it up and go home.  Take the shot - you never regret it!

Wishing you and yours a very happy and prosperous holiday season!

Here's a handful of holiday shots to share, taken here in Austin a couple of years ago!  I always enjoy this season and seeing all the twinkly stuff out there - it just sort of puts a smile on my face!  Hope you have a wonderful holiday season!

I love living here in Austin - it's a great town for living, and a great town for photography.  These 10 photos are a small sample of the great stuff you can find to shoot here.  Have a look!

SoCo (short for South Congress) is a funky little spot in downtown Austin, and I love to go shoot there.  You never know what you might get, but I'm pretty sure you can count on it being interesting.  Hop on in and have a look!  It's 9 HDR photos from a recent sunrise shoot there.

A trio of shots from my hometown of Austin today...and a little commentary on the idea of variety.

Today's post is a couple of shots from Bull Creek, here in Austin.  It's close to home, beautiful, and fun to shoot - especially when you get great light!

Sometimes it pays to drive 5 minutes from home, instead of flying halfway around the world.  You can find great stuff to shoot close to home, too!

Today's post is about The Mean-Eyed Cat Bar here in Austin, TX.  It's a pretty awesome looking place, if I do say so myself!  And I am glad to finally get this one marked off my list of places to shoot here!

Austin is a great town, and we like our weirdness...hence the town motto, "Keep Austin Weird".  Here's a couple of proof points for ya!
