Palace Theater

Abandoned Palace Theater in small town Texas.  The marquee is still there, but the theater remains empty although ticket booth is still in front of the theater on the street as a reminder that once upon a time, it was an active venue.

Weathered Santa Decor

This moon with a sleeping Santa  is a piece of decor on a downtown business in Abilene, Texas.  I've never seen it before but I made the image in the early spring, so it looks like it's left out all year.
I didn't even see a sign indicating what the business is.
I think this is so cute.

Cement steps and red brick building

This building was an abandoned warehouse.  A couple of years ago it was purchased by a local church and revitalized into an extremely popular coffee house.  I seem to remember hearing that some of the proceeds go to missionary ventures.  Maybe that's why their prices are a little higher than other coffee houses in the area.  

I'm grateful today:
for the great phone conversation I had with my daughter who lives many states away

The Yellow Brick Building

Tonight I went to my photo club meeting. But first several of us had dinner at Morette's as usual.

Several of my friends had to leave Morette's earlier than I did in order to get the meeting hall set up for the program. Luba and I were the only two left. We chatted for a while and the conversation rolled around to, guess what--photography. Go figure!

We just started talking about what to do with all the images we take, when Luba suggested that we head outside and take more, 'cause, you know, we don't have enough saved on our hard drives, external hard drives, flash drives, media cards--not to mention all the images we've had printed and put into photo albums, scrap books and enlarged.

Well, I thought some more images was a really good idea--there's an awesome yellow brick building right across the road from Morette's, so that's where we headed. The building is closed up--I don't even know what it was originally, but the yellow is sooo enticing.

Following are just some of the images I made using my point and shoot. Enjoy!





Oh, and I learned something new about my point and shoot--it does macro!! I'm psyched.
