South Texas Shooters (Photography That Is!)

Bexar County Courthouse

Howdy all, I hope that your day was good. it was another hot day in ole San Antonio last night. As the dog days of summer are here and here to stay for sometime, I fear that I may have to get all new cloths by summers end. Will have lost so much body fat that I may become a new person or a earlier verson of me from the past. As the day went along and I did my thing of watching the buses criss-cross thru town and the many peoples who get on and off, I said inside me “People are CRAZY”! Then in the same thought I added myself to the list because I AM CRAZY TOO! As I watch all the kodak moments flash by and hope that I get to freeze the right one, it hit me that there is not a roll of film or sensor that could capture all this! As I moved from one stop to another I took notice of the county courthouse in the evening light and attempted to make a kodak moment to share with you. I hope that I was partly able to freeze the moment and share it with you. There are so many sights, so many images, some so good they warm the heart and some that are so weird that they make ones heart chill. Even with the heat of summer I prefer the heartwarming images that cross my best lens (eyes). As I took note of the people waiting for thier bus to reach the stop I was struck by the crazziness of one man who was attempting to amuse his family while they waited an eastside bus to make the stop. The man had picked up and cradled a pigeon in his hands and was rocking the pigeon in cupped hands, he then gently laid the bird down on the hot sidewalk and stepped back, the bird lay silent, after a few seconds the bird awoke and with some serious wing flaps took to the sky, I thought to me, “PEOPLE ARE CRAZY”! As the family got on the bus another thought came to mind and it made me smile, “you just cant beat seeing life unravel right in front of you, don’t need a TV show I have it 24/7, 365! I hope that your day is good and cool! Pete
