Rain has been scarce here in Texas this summer. We had about an hour’s worth last Saturday (Aug. 13). We need more. Just not in the form of a hurricane. Just a long, steady, soaking, rain.

I was working in the garden and noticed the hawk over on the wood pile in the pasture. I managed to grab my camera and get over to the fence to take the pictures below.

I can do the black and white processing myself, but color I send out to a lab – although I am tempted to try my own color development.

Anyhoo, tonight I picked up a couple rolls from the lab and scanned them in. Most the shots were pretty good, but the two I like the most are technical mistakes.

Color - Blossom 5

Color - Glenwood 2
