Scales & Lines

One of my favorite things to photograph is textures. Scales, feathers, fur, grass, layers, water, pretty much any thing. I've been known to stop randomly in the middle of the street/road/trail to snap a shot of how something looks right at that moment, so the Zoo can be a long experience if you come with me. Just call that fair warning. ;)

Zoo Time

The Dallas Zoo is a pretty cool zoo. They have all sorts of animals, from the common to the unusual. First, you're greeted by this on your way in-

a Welcome Back Mash-up

So I've been home for just about a week. I'm still in the process of getting all my photos in line and trying not to neglect my backlog too badly. So today you get some of this, and some of that, and some of that over there.
