River side restaurant in Texas

Liked and photographed this table setting at an outdoor seating area of a river side restaurant in Texas at the Venice of America where the San Antonio River has been dammed and the flow diverted to create a scenic shopping and recreation area complete with classy hotel accommodations. The mall and buildings have entrances that open to the street side or the river side flowing between them that have water taxis as low powered speed boats to taxi people around for a small fee. Lovely area. Will love to go back!

Stalks reaching the sky


While exploring Texas, I came across a marshy area that was followed on the journey by these stalks reaching high into the sky. I dropped down low to get this picture from a worm's eye view (as opposed to bird's eye view) to capture the stalks towering high above me. It worked! This image was exhibited as a print at an art show. It was my entry photo into the exhibit. I loved the green-yellow stalks against the blue sky.

Corpus Christi, Texas

Corpus Christi Ocean Waves
Photographed on the beach at Corpus Christi, TX as the ocean waves crested and moved toward shore. The key to getting a good ocean picture is to stand at an angle so that the horizon line and the waves are not completely horizontal and there is some depth and drama to the photo. I enlarged this print to a 16x20 and the deep blue water with the frothy, white waves always get oohs and aahs, especially when I get to the part about sunset...

Venice of America

Bridge Reflected on River
Here is an image of a bridge lit from underneath and reflected on the water. This is known as the Venice of America in San Antonio, Texas. The water is from the San Antonio River, which has been dammed and the flow diverted to create this 'Venice'. The area is full of shopping in a 3 floor mall, eateries, hotels, and other places of interest. Architecture is beautiful and the landscaping work of tropical trees adds to the effect. The lights reflected here after sunset were dazzling. The entire area is gorgeous by day or night. Water taxis (low powered speed boats) taxi patrons back and forth at regular intervals. Buildings also open to the street side. Locals, as well as tourists, love this area! I look forward to going back!

Foliage in San Antonio

At Switzerland of America: San Antonio, TX
I photographed this as the sun hit this plant at the perfect angles to make the palm tree look lit up from below. The vibrant shades of green visible in its leaves would not have been possible to capture by camera otherwise. This piece was exhibited at an art show.
