A Red Norther?


There was an interesting celestial conjunction tonight between venus and the Moon. I shot a few photos of it - but the real photo didn't happen until a cold front blew into the Amarillo area bringing lots of airborne Canadian real estate with it. Caught in the glow of the city's sodium vapor street lamps it added "atmosphere" to the shot making it that much more eerie.

PS: Still no rain.

Panhandle Skies in a flying lawn chair.

My good friend Ken Hanson is crazy. He bought him a flying lawn chair suspended from a bed sheet by wires. Naturally I had a to take a few pictures. You might have seen him (and his fellow crazies? flying out and about close to sunset (when the winds are calm) down between South washing ton and Georgia streets on McCormick.














These guys have way too much fun.
