Just off I-10, just before the Trinity River Bridge, going east, where there is no exit so you have to know to exit early, is a little used park (I've never seen anyone else there).  

So I stopped.

    Wow! 6 is my fav. Looks like one of the forests that come alive and the trees walk around. Kind of scary. Excellent shots :o)

    well done. I supposed they were taken in color and transformed by photomanipulation? some info you could share to get such good results. I am looking for an old Monkepod tree to take picts. thanks for your art Mig

    Miguel, I actually did very little manipulation on these photos. I have an old minolta camera that I've set up just to take infrared black and white photos and that's what I used for these. I do convert color photos to black and white though and there are a number of photoshop actions that can be used to automate that process. If you want to know about some of these, pm me and I'll help as much as I can. Bill
