So...
Most of this stuff, except for the last pic, is associated with an automotive dealership currently experiencing legal problems. I wonder about the status of the vintage and antique autos. Legal limbo?
I also like to use reflections to get interesting effects. This is downtown Lubbock by the way.
Sights of this city. Downtown.
When I finish this series I'll be in New Braunfels for a while. I've got some interesting pics from that location. Meanwhile, there is more of Lubbock to go.
Yep, it feels good to be puttin' up my pics again. Welcome to Lubbock and welcome to the South Plains. That is the area I generally document.
I am still exploring behind the old K-Mart.
After examining that area, I tried downtown. Always something to see there.
They've been working on this building for a long time. Someday it might even be finished.
Kind of a sad story here. I won't go into that. Artifacts remain. And we will see some next time.
That's what I did for Easter recreation. It's time to get this blog active again, for 2019, which will probably not be a very good year for most of us. But let's make the best of a bad situation. Let's look at LUBBOCK!! Let's put LUBBOCK under the lens!
Parts of this town already look like the aftermath of a mass extinction event. And I've decided not to reduce file sizes, if I can help it. So if anyone wants to download a pic, you can have it in full resolution. I'm giving them away. Because I don't think it really matters.
Working this way saves me time and trouble and I think my internet connection is fast enough to deal with the uploads.
I lurked around an abandoned K-Mart near a nearly hidden playa lake, among other places, photographing a number of "Lubbock Angels" impaled upon barbed wire.
A double-screen drive-in theater known as The Golden Horseshoe occupied the land, once, where this defunct K-Mart now stands, and the lake was at the back of the theater.
Bleak!
Even more bleak! More of this good stuff next time! In full resolution!
Texas Tech men's basketball is doing well in the tournament and they have a very important game today. This morning I saw this Raider flag flying from the topmost mast of a TV broadcast tower. I got a few shots with telephoto:
Who put it there. The station? I'm estimating you'd have to climb up about 350 feet. Nice job!
