Another green anole

Remember the green anole I photographed at my folks' house in April of last year? You don't? Check these posts out for a quick refresher: green anole and back to the green anole.

A couple of weekends ago, I was working in my patio...trimming the tree. I noticed a brown lizard on the fence as I was "closing up shop" for the evening. So, I went inside, found my camera, and went back out. The lizard was gone. But, lo! A green anole had shown up on the tree trunk:

And, a bit of a close-up:

He wasn't happy to see me and quickly skittered away. Ah well.

Storm Clouds

[Storm clouds]

I took this photo last November. I can rarely resist storm clouds. Particularly when the sun's giving 'em a kiss! I think I took this photo from the roof of my parking garage at work.

Revisiting the Church on FM 969

[The church on 969]

It's been about 19 months since I last posted a photo of this church. Surprisingly, it doesn't seem to have deteriorated much from the last time. 'Took this photo on Sunday.

Sunset Number 16

[Sunset on 969]

I'm taking a bit of a break from photos taken on my hikes with Jennie. I took this shot on my way home from my folks' house on Father's Day. I noticed that the sun was gonna set soon as I was driving through Bastrop which meant that I had to veer off onto FM 969 so I could get some shots from my favorite spot. 'Gorgeous, isn't it? You miss some of the detail, though, when I re-size the photo to fit the space 'round here. So, you get a bonus today:
