  • Morgan Chase Tower

    Morgan Chase Tower

    The dominant tower in downtown Houston, and in fact the tallest in Texas. This is the Morgan Chase tower. I like this design, it's simple and little daunting, accentuating height and the audacity of skyscraper construction. 2012

  • George Bush Park Sunset

    George Bush Park Sunset

    I went out to George Bush Park in West Houston to get a shot of the Pan-Starrs comet, but the sunset on its own was nice enough. Texas, 2013

  • San Jacinto Monument

    San Jacinto Monument

    As of 2018, this was my one and only visit to the San Jacinto Monument; sitting out in east Houston amid the myriad of industry and refineries. This is an HDR shot, hence the interesting detail on the brickwork. Texas, 2012

  • Downtown Reflections

    Downtown Reflections

    Reflections on the glazed finish of a typical Houston skyscraper, Texas, 2013

  • Enron Towers

    Enron Towers

    These towers are among the most striking in downtown Houston. The sleek lines and curves are made for a mono conversion. You wouldn't know that they were associated with one of the biggest financial scandals in history - the Enron scandal. Texas, 2013

  • Downtown Houston

    Downtown Houston

    Unlike the rest of Houston, the downtown area is an apparently eclectic mix of skyscraper designs; with a number of semi-contemporary designs. 2013.

  • Houston Skyline

    Houston Skyline

    An 83 second (why? don't know) long exposure with a big stopper filter of the downtown Houston skyline in Texas, 2013.

  • Houston Reflections

    Houston Reflections

    Was of writing (2018), I haven't seen this reflection pool filled with anything but leaves. Shame, because it makes for quite a sight. Downtown Houston, 2013

  • Colorful Houston

    Colorful Houston

    Got here at just the right time to get this image - darkness was just about to fall and the lights of the Wells Fargo Building and City Hall perfectly lit up the scene. , 2013

  • Houston at Night

    Houston at Night

    A 25 second long exposure of the Houston skyline in the early evening, taken from the small footprint crossing the Buffalo Bayou, 2013

  • Energy City

    Energy City

    I will have to admit that I was fairly apprehensive of hauling my equipment about in this part of town, and I had to prop my tripod up precariously just to get this long exposure. Still, the lights of downtown Houston are worth the effort. Allen Parkway, Houston, 2013

  • The Lights are On

    The Lights are On

    Houston, 2013

  • Hermann Park

    Hermann Park

    A very light mist ascends from the lake in Hermann Park, Houston, 2014

  • Houston Zoo

    Houston Zoo

    The shoreline lit up in the early evening in Hermann Park, Houston, not quite drying out after a heavy thunderstorm. 2014

  • Hermann Park

    Hermann Park

    A heavily edited (matte finish) image of Hermann Park, Houston. This was taken at sunset as we waited the 4th July fireworks after a heavy thunderstorm. 2014

  • Houston Medical Center

    Houston Medical Center

    The northern end of the Houston Medical Center backs on to Rice and Hermann Park. Seen here after a big summer thunderstorm in Houston, 2014

  • Houston Astros

    Houston Astros

    Minute Maid Park, 2013

  • Sunset Skyline

    Sunset Skyline

    This is just one of many (and still more to come) explorations of the Downtown Houston parking lot roofs, in an effort to find the best vantage spots for skyline shots. Best to do it during baseball season as they will be open on a Saturday night! 2014

  • Lake Woodlands

    Lake Woodlands

    A pair of office buildings set against the fading light over Lake Woodlands, late on the 4th of July. The Woodlands, Texas. 2018.

  • 4th July Fireworks

    4th July Fireworks

    4th of July fireworks over the Hughes Landing area of The Woodlands, on Lake Woodlands. Lots of debris in the lake after a big afternoon storm. Texas 2018.

  • Summer Lightning

    Summer Lightning

    Big thunder and lightning storm over a subdivision in The Woodlands, Texas. 2018.

  • San Jacinto Monument

    San Jacinto Monument

    Taken just after the (first!) COVID lockdown in Houston - the San Jacinto Monument, in glorious June heat. 2020
