Driving Lessons A naive person may think this bumper car ride is a fun day at the carnival, but it's really the training grounds for Houston drivers. Students are taught the fine art of switching three lanes at one time, U-turns without looking and pushing your way through for that last parking spot. Those that survive move on to Interstate 10 and the Galleria parking garage for advance training.
Austin Skyline It had been a rainy week as we attended the South by Southwest Conference in Austin earlier this month. It wasn't a great week to carry the camera, so it spent much of the time in the hotel room. I was determined to take a few shots though, and did manage to spend the last two evenings out looking for something interesting. On the last evening we made it to the river, just at sunset. My first shots from a pedestrian bridge had too many foreground distractions, so I headed for the river's edge and found a flat spot with a nice view. It was a great way to end the week.
The Who House It had rained all week and I was itching to take some photos. Camera and tripod in hand, we were waiting for dinner at Stubbs BBQ in Austin, when looking across the street, I saw the famous Who House. Okay, maybe it's not famous, and it's not called the Who House. In fact, I don't even know what kind of business it is, but the banners caught my eye and I thought it looked cool.
