Misc View from a Bar Stool

View from a Bar Stool · 04:18 PM

I spent a good part of the afternoon today exploiting a beautiful, bright blue day to photograph various subjects on and around Surfside Beach, TX - a funky little town on a barrier island near Freeport. At the end of the "shoot" (using the term liberally), I was consumed by thirst and stopped in at the Hammerhead Bar and Burger. Here are some pics I shot from a comfortable perch on the bar stool.

What planet am I on?

Time to go home:

Ahhh there's nothing like rewarding yourself after a hard day

- What the heck is that on the shelf the tip bear ? Quite like the last shot - commercial quality.

Jer, where is the Lone Star? Nice colors, Bob

A reward well earned.

Thanks, Dave. These Limited lenses can produce some extraordinary results, even in the hands of a rube like me.

Ah Jer, you lead such a hectic, busy life. We all feel so sorry for you and hope you don't die of boredom.

Thanks much. I really enjoy trying stuff like this; it doesn't always work, but it's fun to try.

Susan, one of us has to fill this burdensome role, so I bravely volunteered.
