Our House, Austin TX
It's a very very very fine house, but one of the cats in the yard isn't ours.Trees in bud, late February in Texas (ah for the glorious days of February again).

Development, Markham ON
View of Cathedral Town development from cathedral.New parts of Markham are predominantly ethnically Chinese, which may help understand this particular peculiarity, or maybe not.

View of Corpus Christi Bay, Portland TX
I don't know what that is on the horizon.
I don't think it is offshore, but it is quite distant,
and must be something huge.
Three Banks, Corpus Christi TX
The camera's best effort at the actual colors;the only color tweaking is pulling highlights down so you can see the clouds.

Easter, Clarksville TN
Just a documentary shot.The date is wrong.
It was indeed some years ago but not the 80s;
I'd guess around spring of 2000.
It was in the middle south;
Clarksville is just a guess.
I will never understand Easter.

Click the pictures for the full effect.
I take landscape photos that seem to me revealing of something or other.
Often I try to make them look sort of like oil paintings or watercolors.
So far the only tool I have used besides a camera is iPhoto.
So far I have avoided any retouching or other spot effects.
I often turn "noise reduction" way up to deliberately remove small details.
So far they are all taken in North America.
They usually come out sort of hyperrealistic, but sometimes impressionistic.
Sometimes they come out lousy, but I won't post those.
