SHOE ANGELS

The "Shoe Angels" repair shop in Seattle was around the corner from the restaurant our Nat Geo group ate at for the wrap up dinner of our work shop.  It had a fascinating collection of items inside and would have been a great place to photograph during working hours had there been time.

Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo_2012

Rain put a bit of a damper on the festivities at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo this past Saturday, but didn't shut it down. There was still a decent crowd, and everything was open, in spite of the weather.

Kemah Light Show

One more shot from Friday night's light show at the Kemah Boardwalk.

Kemah Juggler 2

Another shot of the Kemah juggler from last Friday night.

You Looking at Me?

Also from Friday night's trip to the Kemah Boardwalk, I shot several frames of this juggler doing his thing and this was my favorite.

Extreme Makeover Home Editition

Last night the episode of "Extreme Makeover Home Edition" filmed in Kemah 10 or 12 weeks ago aired on a two hour special. During the week long filming we went out and watched for probably 8-10 hours. It was very interesting to watch the swarm of volunteers put the house up and last night's show kind of wrapped up the whole experience. I'm sure the cynical among us could find issues with the philanthropic aspect of the show but, as for me, I would like to see them go on for a long time.
