Royal Blight
On my way to Big Bend National Park (where I am now--or rather, nearby), I passed through the midge sized town of "Royalty," Texas, which looks as if it had never lived up to its name, but even less now with many homes vacant and what few businesses there ever were, there are far fewer today (possibly none). This appears to have been some kind of store, and in better shape than many of its brethren--derelicts that are barely standing. Note the door, i.e., zoom in on it. It's pretty cool.
What am I doing in Texas? Well, I became utterly sick of this miserable Autumn we've been having in Kansas, so am seeking warmer climes. Actually, the cold weather has been following me and I keep meeting people who are just as sick of the weather as I am. Things began an upswing today, however, and it should be in the 60's the next few days.
To me this resembles an HDR image that had been tone-mapped, but it is not.
