A Fine February Evening
If you haven’t figured it out yet, a lot of what I do is wander. These excursions, as my site implies, are ramblings. Sometimes I have something in mind. Mostly, however, I’m following, and chasing, the light. As a first grader, I couldn’t draw worth a lick. When Miss Bertha White, my first grade teacher at Grim Elementary School, in Texarkana, Texas, asked the class to draw a person, I drew one alright, but left off an essential portion of the anatomy: a body. There was a head, eyes, nose, mouth and ears. There were a set of legs and arms to match. The arms, however, were attached to the legs, sans body. I got a D-minus. Fast-forward to my late-teens, when I discovered photography. I was hooked, and have been ever since. I could “draw” with light. These photos taken last week were the result of 75-minute wandering, in East Williamson County, Texas, from just before sunset, until well after. Chase the light when you can.
