What’s the story here? I was trying to capture photographs of a few home grown musicians at practice in one of the cafes in Austin. While they tightened their guitar strings, I noticed this vivid red wall that had strange looking wall hangings, lit brilliantly or selectively depending on where the light fell.

What could this be? Constellation? Lights of cars? I seem to have a fascination for shooting lights. Can never get enough of them. This picture is taken in a weird coffee shop in weirder Austin.

“Why do I run? I run because there’s a challenge. If I run hard, there’s the pain - and I have got to work my way through the pain. You know, lately it seems all you hear is? Don’t overdo it’ and? Don’t push yourself.’ Well, I think that’s a lot of bull. If you push the human body, it will respond.”

A classic example of getting a picture by mistake. I was trying to capture a picture of a vintage looking bus in downtown San Antonio while it waited at the red light. In my hurry I forgot to change the settings on my camera. I realised it only after I pressed down the shutter and it took a very long time to close. The result is this. I love it.

Late evening, the dark blue clouds hung over the ground at times letting the sun through. Would it rain? I guess so.
