Laura and Bob

Photograph ©2010 Alex Suárez. All rights reserved.

Right after she got engaged, my friend Laura asked me if I would take a photo for their “save the date” cards.
We shot this in the shadow of the Stevie Ray Vaughn statue at Auditorium Shores by Ladybird Lake (aka Town Lake) near downtown Austin, Texas at sunrise.
Storbist info: SB-600 in TTL mode, camera left, bounced into a foam core card.
Congratulations to Laura and Bob.

Statuary Detail

Photograph ©2010 Alex Suárez. All rights reserved.

This is an image from the May 15th Photowalk around the University of Texas.  This particular statue was not here when I attended the university back in the 80s.  Anyway, what you see here is a detail from the corner of the base for the statue.  The statue is located on the West Mall.

Two Palms


Photograph ©2010 Alex Suárez. All rights reserved.


This pair of palm trees on the beach caught my eye. You could lay in the surf and be shaded by a palm tree at the same time. How cool is that? This is in the town of Esperanza on the Caribbean Sea on the island of Vieques, immediately East of Puerto Rico. Amazing turquoise and aqua colors in the water. What are some of your favorite vacation spots?

Stranded Coconut

Photograph ©2010 Alex Suárez. All rights reserved.

This coconut was washed up on shore.  It looked like it had spent some time adrift before washing back ashore.  
Austin folks: Tomorrow, John Langford will be speaking about his Box Humana project at the CapMac Advanced Photography SIG.  More details here.

El Malecón

Photograph ©2010 Alex Suárez. All rights reserved.

Under the shade of a Flamboyan tree, I stopped to take in the scenery of the crystal clear waters from El Malecón, a mini boardwalk.  On this side to the street is a wide sidewalk with incredible views of the Caribbean Sea. On the opposite side is a row restaurants, bars and a museum.
