Gulf Sunset with Tanker

Making our way back to Galveston. Hundreds of miles from shore, there are oil platforms. I can only imagine how much it would suck to be out here in the middle of a hurricane.

Railroad Crossing

Heading back home after watching the sunrise over the Trona Pinnacles. Fortunately for me the light was just about perfect for this. I spot metered on the sign which is why the blues are so dark.

Sometimes, you just get lucky.

I should add... this picture is the reason I stopped to shoot this, just to see what I could do with it.
