This minute detail on a bridge over the Bricktown Canal says J Loves K. Hopefully in days not yet come, 2 people will come back to still find it here. A meaningful momento of younger and more carefree times in their lives. I imagine them with 3 kids all grown and gone. Gray-haired and moving […]
This old sticker on the door of an abandoned fueling station saying safety think it use it. It is more reminiscent of modern times rather than the era this property thrived in. I am often surprised at the amount of abandoned buildings I find so close to the everyday. Oklahoma City is rife with areas […]
This is where concrete meets glass and sky. Sometimes we forget to look up daily. The image says many things. I can almost image walking down a pier to the end. The reflection in the window to the right seems to hint as to what awaits at the end of the journey at the far […]
The stillness of this bridge over still waters has an atmosphere about it. I have been through here a few times ,but there has always been people here. The river taxis disturb the water as well and reflections can be tough to get other nights of the week. I took this photo at night along […]
I found this desert cacti was hidden between route 66 in Arizona and a set of railroad tracks. I located it behind a cut out of pure stone I was hiking on. It grew out of a boulder that was perched on the edge of the hillside and looked as if I could have pushed […]
This dilapidated old section of train tracks is near the Stockyards in OKC. I shot this with the EOS T6. I used the Tokino 100mm 2.8 Marco lens. There is an old train bridge there that I wanted to check out for a while. The area turned out to be one of the homeless areas […]
Yesterday was an interesting day where the past comes to visit. I ventured out into several areas of OKC that I drive by most days but fail to see everything that is there. I took these photos in the gallery from an old antique store that was abandoned on Western Ave. in Oklahoma City. It […]
I am writing this to attempt to convey my opinion on why perspective and focus matters in my photography. My style is mostly from an odd angle for a lot of my best work. I try to capture the essence of the subject from slightly different views. The subject being the gear teeth is this […]
Oklahoma City, where the old meets the new metropolitan cityscape. We are steeped in tradition and rarely move too quickly to change here. This photograph of partial skyline shows the vast difference in architectural design. The new downtown buildings are a stark contrast to their brick and mortar neighbors. I enjoy the beauty of the […]
Funny how we rarely look up and get vertigo above the skyline most of the time. I like the view from below and it seems natural to follow all the leading lines that architecture offers. These scenes usually leave me light-headed after a minute or two. I always notice an imposing feeling of the world […]
