Sunrise over DFW airport this morning.
Fire burning for hours in Dallas?
Last night's rising Moon over Cedar Hill.
5 minute old picture of the new bridge construction in Dallas. Huge. (Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge, I think)

Also like the sunrise over DFW Airport. It just drips with "another hot day's a coming".
Overall I really like your long range shots. Lets us look at our city in ways many of us don't have much opportunity for.

Sure is pretty frustrating drilling for cabinet hardware. Sure enough needs to be in just the right place.
Makes me nervous. I bought the plastic guides but of course I want to mount mine in a different position than the guide
provides for. It would be fun to see somebody that knows what they are doing do it now.
Now I think I need a backsplash. My condo on 34 has granite counters that go up the walls to the cabinets. This condo had no options.

So what did you do before the pulls? Just grab the edge of the door or drawer and pull? Weird.

Fort Worth waterfall, near Carswell, east of Pumphrey. Hard to determine scale but each level is 5 - 7 ft high.
Old sign as seen through fencing near waterfall. This is on Carswell property and from satellite, can see old rifle range.

I just did a backsplash. Super easy. Used a combo of ceramic and glass tiles. Make a huge difference, looks completed now.

Would love to give that a try. Show us a pic!

Yes, the golf course is west of Pumphrey and this is east by about 300 yds.

I just rode by there yesterday. No pictures of that, but here's a brief video.
Earlier in the ride, approaching downtown from the southwest, I caught the sunrise.
I rode a metric century (my first), starting from the North Crowley area in south Fort Worth, up to Tanglewood where I picked up the Trinity Trail, then to downtown, then to River Oaks, around the tip of the JRB, met some people in White Settlement and we rode around the west side of Lake Worth to the Fort Worth Wildlife Preserve, then back home from there. 114 kilometers/71 miles. Full report (if you care) on my blog.

Was at my attorney's office again yesterday morning. (real estate attorney) On the 20th floor of the Burnett Plaza building.
Of course I consider part of my legal fees to grant me the privilege of dragging my biggest lens up to that floor and making security nervous.
Lancaster Bridge over the Trinity River.
Up West 7th. As I have stated before, I like how a big lens mixes different neighborhoods together.
Stayton Construction peaking up over the Trinity Terrace Towers.
Montgomery Plaza.

And this interesting bit of small graffiti on the bridge:
Now for a totally random shot...I fired out a window of the Neighborhood Grill at some nearby power lines while waiting for some delicious hamburger steak and sweet potato fries to arrive . Photographers generally hate power lines and equipment. After I played with this shot in post processing I found it actually had a little interesting color. Sometimes instead of loathing something you just gotta celebrate it a little:

Really like this shot of MP Art. If we could have moved the new Cobalt Super Sport it could like like the cover to an old Montgomery Ward Catalog.
Interesting perspective (Best perspective) of this building. Not quite sure where you took the shot from if you did not rent some helicopter time. To me it would seem there are many buildings, like So7 that would be in the way of shooting the front of the building from the river. Very nice.

Nah. That's not an SS. It's just a normal Cobalt coupe with some ugly wheels. lol It still looks better than the Sunfire and Accord with racing stripes, though!

Brian,
Thanks for your compliments! In post processing I played around with cropping out the cars, but it just didn't work for the overall photo, framing wise, so I left them in. If I get to do this shot again I'll raise the camera up more so it does the cropping of the cars.
I shot this standing atop the west levee of the Trinity River, above the parking lot for the duck pond and firefigher/police memorial. John may be right...this photo op spot may disappear someday.

103 degree heat is no excuse for the one who cools art to get out in the heat and make some photos!
Down along the Trinity in Trinity Park today:
This just in! A HUGE iguana invades the Fort Worth Zoo staff building! Film at 10!
Pandemonium and terror spread throughout the city as the giant iguana prepares for total mayhem!

Flash? I don't need no steenking flash, thanks to my new fast 35mm glass at Esperanza's. Now...where does the mural leave off and the actual restaurant begin?
Esperanza's, aka "Depth of Field Diner":

I took this shot this morning, bright and early, while it was still like 88° out. (Careful, frostbite will sneak up on you.)
