Different twin kids

| No Comments

This is a picture, not taken, of two very different little twins: the girl being conscientious, saying hello to people and stepping out of the way of an employee mopping the floor, and the boy being rambunctious, running all over the floor and accidentally pushing a display case into people.

Stuffed toy twin

| No Comments

This is a picture, not taken, of a normal glance in the rear view mirror and seeing a woman dressed in a fur jacket with a stuffed toy hanging from her rear view mirror, the two looked so startlingly similar, that I wondered if I was in an alternate universe where people looked like their knickknacks.

Young men

| No Comments

This is a picture, not taken, of a group of young men, one in particular walking backwards rapidly with his arms wide open talking, bragging, or bantering it's unclear. What is clear is that the old man he ran into is none to pleased and looks impotently in fustration, brushing his drink off of his shirt as the man keeps walking away...

Ironic protesters

This is a picture, not taken, of three protesters taking a break, their signs warning of global warming laying forgotten on the ground beside them while they stand in a tiny circle, smoking...

Advertising moons

| No Comments

This is a picture, not taken, of signs along the interstate highway, brightly lit, for as bright as the dense foggy night will allow them, seemingly hovering in the air, as the fog obscures the posts, the effect is one of a constellation of advertising moons...

Ninja cathood

| No Comments

This is a picture, not taken, of a cat staring at me from my backyard porch, the said cat's first ever appearance was notable enough for me to race around for a camera, but, upon returning, the feline was nowhere to be found, and has now moved into the realms of ninja-cathood and will affect many future half-remembered dreams to come...

Uneaten pie

Uneaten pie

This is a picture, taken, of a pie's potential, before a taste is taken, all of its attributes tantalizingly dancing around, many scenarios battling for supremacy, the chance that it could fall short in flavor, texture, or taste, opposed to the possibility that it could make someone's day unexpectedly, all these and many more balanced precariously on a knife's edge as it plunges down towards cleaving the first slice...

Pachinko Christmas

| No Comments

This is a picture, not taken, while driving on a downward sloping interstate highway, of 3 vehicles traveling at a high rate of speed with their hazard blinkers on,weaving in and out of traffic,at the same time as others periodically changing lanes,making the highway field look like the red and yellow lights of a Christmas tree and the cars look like Pachinko balls bouncing back and forth as they fall towards Austin...

Football dog

| No Comments

This is a picture, not taken, of a woman carrying around a small, black poodle like a football, nestled snugly in her arm, the dog looking around as people unknowingly jostled into it, more intent on shopping than the welfare of an innocent creature...

Pink Superman Jesus

| No Comments

This is a picture, not taken, of a large, heavy-set man browsing a display case of hats, picking up the bright-pink baseball cap with both the Superman logo and the word Jesus on it and contemplate trying in on...

Cloudless sunset

| No Comments

This is a picture, not taken, of a cloudless sunset. The sky, bordering on a light-polluted black at the apex moves down to dark-blue, then light blue, past Venus, to a yellow orange and finally to a bright burnt-orange resting deep in the heart of Texas...

Unphotographable

| No Comments

This is a picture, not taken, of a cloudless twilight sky that was all shades of blue, indigo, and violet. Two planes, flying off to exotic locales in the sunset were poised like comets -- their contrails colored in fiery hues of red and orange.

This is a picture I did not take of a huge concrete pillar

| No Comments

Said concrete pillar must have been 50 feet long, perched on top of a wide-load trailer. And it was currently situated to cause as much ensnarlment as possible. The route it was taking across some nameless intersection in Belton, Texas was one that traffic planners had not considered. So it was currently stopped in the road as the handlers considered how to extricate themselves...

All of this was spied during a brief moment in time as I sped southward down IH-35...
