This is Why I Love Houston
February 7, 2008
Houston has a lot going for it. Really. Great food, good culture, nice people, lots to do … well, not a lot, but enough. Did I mention the great food? I had Nit Noi’s for lunch today; pretty much the greatest Thai food I’ve ever had. Beef pad thai to die for.
Houston has a lot of something else: traffic. And concrete. Man, do I hate sitting in traffic staring at a bunch of ugly concrete. Little else can ruin my day, afternoon or evening like driving the seven miles from our house to the Park and Ride in a blistering 45 minutes.
Fortunately, I have a lot of time to think about things while I fritter my life away in gridlock, and something I’ve been thinking about all week was taking some pictures that capture my frustration. The prospect of doing so has actually made sitting in traffic fun … if only for a little while. I took a few shots today but did not manage to capture the one I have really been visualizing. I’d like to experiment with texturing some of these photos as well. Maybe I’ll catch that perfect shot tomorrow … but hopefully I won’t have the chance to.

I myself buy from and would recommend the following camera retailers to any one! They offer good prices and top shelf service. In particular, both Adorama and B&H are great resources for learning and I've always found their staff to be very helpful and knowledgeable. I'd so appreciate it if you use the links below to begin shopping; it won't cost you an extra cent but I'll earn a small commission which will allow me to spend more time answering your questions and helping others!
