The Face of Texas

A lot of times when people think of Texas, they seem to think about cowboys, accents, animals, weather and the southern culture. I tried a different approach on my recent journey through Texas. This trip I have really focused on the people that make up the great state of Texas. I've met some wonderful new people since I have been here and I've also visited with old friends. I have some up close captures that captivate me.

It's amazing what you can see when someone smiles at you. You can see things that are usually spoken. I can see joy, pain, love, hate, frustration and so many more. These photos have a lot to say and I will leave the interpretations to you.

Everyone is beautiful in their own way. This collection of people is a great representation of the diversity and beauty that fills the Texas landscape. I had a wonderful time with everyone you see and I tried to capture the moment through the expressions on each of their faces.

This approach to photography is a little different than my typical landscape shots, but I really wanted to showcase the diversity of my skills.
I hope you guys enjoy and I will have some more photos up before too long, but it will be completely different that what you see here.

Thanks so much to everyone for being themselves and for spending time with me.
