Another Look At Southeast Lubbock

Yes, that is where we are, in a sort of light industrial zone with residences scattered here and there. Lots of vacant lots, too. Weird zoning.








Ahhhh! The mattresses, and the junk! It's just what we expected to see.







There is some serious crap out here...




People seem to have been dumping things here for a long time!





Most of this stuff is clustered around a semi-fallen building.





Zoom lenses come in handy!





A feast for the eyes, here in Lubbock, Texas...





Actually, this sort of stuff makes Lubbock less sterile. At least these trash piles and rotting shacks add interest.





We always wonder about the history of places like this.





And then there are the residential areas nearby...





A lot of these structures are unoccupied though.




Nothing for sale around here. Probably not much commission potential. These places were probably used up and abandoned.

Looking At Lubbock Through a Sony Cyber-Shot

This is a used camera, of course, found on eBay. I got this for something I could conceal easily in a pocket. These were some of my test pics.




Just more ruins and out-of-the-way stuff.




Here comes one of my favorite pics:
Kind of sums it all up, doesn't it?
And for the following pics, we had to go "off road"...




That's all for now. Eventually, I'll post my first photo set using the new lens I got for the Nikon. They turned out great but I'm going to be forced to use some different techniques.
