AT THE MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS HOUSTON

This whimsical piece of art caught my eye. It's made from pipes, so the whole theme revolves around how we use water.

SWAMP ~ EXPERIMENTAL

This is a swamp we have north of the city. I traveled a long way to take this photo, but there was just one problem; the swamp had hardly any water in it!

We are now in year 3 of our Texas drought. 

Still, I found the cypress tree 'knees' fascinating.

I put extra contrast with this photo to highlight the eerie feeling of swamps.

To me, I'm much more fascinated than afraid of them.

Of course, don't leave me out there at night without a flashlight!

FAN PALM

I love fan palms and this one is in my back garden. I did not 'pose' this photo like I usually do because I wanted it to look wild and tropical. I needed the foreground to look raw and asymmetrical...just like you'd find in nature.

INNER COMPUTER ABSTRACT ART

My brother had to take apart our computer this week. Here's a close up of another component.

It looks like one of those shading exercises one sees in beginning art class.

These are identical prongs that are all sticking up. The light source makes all the difference.
