Well, it's a hole in the ground....

It might just be a hole in the ground now, but in 2012 State Fair of Texas visitors will feast their eyes upon a 500 foot tall observation tower ride. The ride will hold 100 passengers. The 212-foot tall Texas Star ferris wheel is visible in the distance in this photo.

Yes, the sirens sounded....

Amazing clouds moments ago as a storm cell passed thru Arlington.

State Fair of Texas kicks off in 128 days, 22 hours, 6 minutes...

The State Fair of Texas has been a client since 2003. I've shot literally tens of thousands of photos at the Fair and wouldn't trade for the experience or opportunity. Although it's only May, the countdown is on and the folks at the biggest state fair in the nation are working hard to kick things off. Opening day is September 30.

Back to Del Rio, Texas

A third visit to Del Rio, Texas had me shooting more construction progress photos for Conroe, TX client Pate Transportation Partners. I've done a good bit of shooting for Pate over the last 3-4 years and I always look forward to the shoots. I've grown accustomed to the all-night concrete pours as well as the long hot summer days out on the asphalt. Some great photo ops, though, for sure.

Welcome to something new....

With 40 issues of my e-newsletter PixelChatter created since 2005, I've decided to try something different. Welcome to PixelChatter Daily.

There's not a lot of content here....yet, but it will build over time. I hope you'll come back daily and check out new images and other posts that might make you laugh, will amaze you, or strike a chord in some fashion.

Thanks for checking it out!

Janie Fricke Shoot - May 2011

Janie Fricke is 1980s country royalty. As CMA Female Vocalist of the Year two consecutive years, 1981-1982, she was at the top of the list in female country superstars of that era.

Now living south of Dallas on an 8 acre spread, Janie Fricke still has a golden voice. She called on me to come to her home and shoot a few new publicity stills. We spent the afternoon shooting around her historic home, once the home of Pat Garrett, the man who tracked and gunned down Billy the Kid back in the day. That nostalgic old west flavor still resonates thru Fricke's home.

A few years ago, I shot the cover photo for Fricke's latets CD release, Roses and Lace. We hit it off (she's a true sweetheart) and have kept in touch since. I was happy to get a call from her to shoot once again. I was sad, however, to learn that Fricke and George Jones will be performing together in early June...and that I'll be unable to attend. Here's hoping they team up again for a little country music magic and that I can be front and center, toe-tapping to two of country's greatest stars.
