I thought about putting a few more photos up, but decided to concentrate on faces.   Anyone wanting to see more is welcome to seeing them in the Williamson County Sun.   Among my favorites is the lady in her mid-90s, among the oldest attendees.   She’s included in three of these six photos.   The little boy is holding onto the arm of his father, the pastor at Georgetown’s First Presbyterian Church.   I kind of like that, too.   Just some things I like, friends. Especially the last one. 

From tonight, the haze from Saharan dust continues, but I’m liking the warmth created.   Over a cornfield east of Taylor, Texas.  

One of my ramblings this week took me Granger Lake.   There I found a dad enjoying an afternoon of fishing with his sons, ages 6 and 22.    He likes the peaceful mood he gets when coming here.   With Father’s Day this weekend, this seemed like a good post to offer.

I guess it’s a week for trees and sunsets, plus a few birds.   Advance apologies, but when I see something that catches my eye, a picture might be snapped.   Or a couple.   A little east of Granger, Texas last evening.   That’s probably some Saharan dust adding to the warmth.  

Via a friend’s post, I learned that today is Nature Photography Day.    These recent evening photos from Taylor’s Bull Branch Park were my planned post this evening, but it’s nice to have a theme.    Most of my daily walks lead through here.    Nature thrives close to home.

It was a stellar end to a very warm day in Taylor, Texas.   Today is Flag Day in the United States. Around here, you might also see a state flag included.  

These two were taken tonight along the same road east of Granger.  Just minutes apart.   The goal was a full moon photo, but why pass up a glorious sunset?   The so-called Strawberry Moon doesn’t show up in our area until nearly 10p.m. Tuesday.  I’ll be happy with 99.7% visibility tonight.

A photo from one of my  recent daily walks in Taylor.   This Night Heron was so focused on finding a fish she ignored me completely.  I like when that happens.   This is one of those images taken with my little Olympus camera.   I really like its lightness. Now if I can just understand why a bird I see in morning is called a Night Heron! 

Though I said there was only one post tonight, a gathering of wild sunflowers changed my mind.   Seen along an unpaved road between Hutto and Norman’s Crossing, they were joined by a Waxing Gibbous moon, at almost 97% visibility, plus a good sunset.   If you look closely, the last image shows the moon over Shiloh-McCutcheon Cemetery, at the end of that same road.

Just this one tonight, friends.    I always like these cows, but the warm early-evening light made it worth a post.
