Richmond, Texas:
A native of Scotland, Isaac McFarlane (1840-1900) served with Terry's Texas Rangers during the Civil War and later became a successful merchant in Richmond. This home was constructed for his family in the early 1880s by local builder Thomas Culshaw. Prominent features include the Italianate hood molds over the windows and doors and the cut metal cresting on the roof ridge. Ownership of the house remained with the McFarlane family until 1979. Recorded Texas Historic Landmark - 1985
We did stay here when we went through Amarillo, it is a pretty good deal. 39.99 for the room, a coupon for breakfast, free belt buckle, horse stables and a Texas shaped pool that was too cold to go in.
I never noticed the satellite dish or the video camera until I looked the photograph over.
The black and white version.
Yet another image of the Milky Way above the old tobacco drying barns outside Texas, Qld.
This image was constructed from 22 vertical frames in 4 rows (only 3 rows were really required) taken with my X-T5 and 23mm f/2 lens @ f/2, 10 sec, ISO 8000, and stitched in PTGui Pro.
Totality darted in and out of visibility in cloudy Texas
Nail biter cleared clouded cleared again then settled on cloudy with the eclipse just visible through the clouds and even then it darted in and out of the dense clouds during totality.
Captured with a Questar telescope and a Nikon Z7II. Quite a bit of AI processing has been used to coax as much as possible from this cloudy image. Kept my laptop thinking for a while and updated.
This is the first time I have had to photograph an eclipse degraded by thick clouds and just visible. It is a bit like looking through frosted glass, but the one very surprising result for me is at the bottom of the Sun with the prominences and how the brilliant red lit up the obsuring cloud red- this I have not seen before. This photo to my eye is close to what I saw with the brilliant red prominences and the cloud squelched corona.
This crescent represents the state of Texas well. It has nice rust and brown hues on its dorsal side.
Esta mariposa lunita tejana representa el estado bien. En su vista dorsal, se ven tinte de color café y tonalidades de color teja hermosos.
I couldn't believe my eyes when I spotted this derelict home sitting right in the path of this strengthening supercell. It was just one of those moments where everything seems to fall in place, give me a shot like this every year I chase and I'll be happy!
It initially looked to be a slow chase day, and we spent a few hours zipping up and down the same stretch of road while storm cells pulsed and died around us. Eventually one storm tapped into some stronger inflow and began to rotate, eventually forming this incredible stacked supercell. Not a bad way to start off our 2018 chase trip!
Near Childress, Texas, May 13 2018.
Back in early February I made a trip to south Texas to look for reptiles and birds for about 4 days.
The first snake I was able turn up was this Texas Patchnosed snake that I found under an old piece of plastic at a dump spot in the texas scrub. I was very glad to turn up this lifer.
These snakes get there name from the large scale on their nose that looks like a patch. These snakes specialize in digging up the eggs of other reptiles and this enlarged scale aids them in digging.

Tornado touches down in a field near Morton, Texas May 23, 2022
Beautiful structure with this tornado producing supercell I intercepted yesterday afternoon outside of Odell, Texas. This storm had one of the most pronounced radar hooks I have seen in a while. This is a 12 image panoramic using the new pano merge feature in Adobe Lightroom, finished in Photoshop CC. Hope you enjoy.
Lake that is not too far off of Interstate 40 in northern Texas ... a pretty spot that Ms. Krach and I stopped off to spend a morning eating a quick breakfast and to take in some nature while on our way to New Mexico. Well worth the small travel off the highway to take a break and get away from it all.
Just looking at this scene I can hear all the birds, the breeze and the smell of some camp fires off in the distance filtering in to where we were along this lake.
The Longhorns in the Wichita Mountains are a pure strain. It's easy to see their lineage from the Spanish cattle that were first brought to the Southwest. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
