This mission seems to be the smallest of the four and there were very few people there when I visited, but it does have the most intact surviving church from the 18th century and according to the National Park… Read More Mission Concepción

Enchanted Rock Reflected

Enchanted Rock is an outdoor attraction in central Texas with a state park built around it. Even though it is quite isolated out in the hill country, it is a very busy park and you should probably get reservations online a few days in advance if you want to go experience it as they limit… Read More Enchanted Rock Reflected

Wildflower Pasture

There is a pasture along a highway that I pass sometimes. This pasture is full of wildflowers right now and I have stopped to photograph it more than once, but I don’t think I have gotten it right. Below is the pasture with the sun setting in the distance. An hour before sunset, there were… Read More Wildflower Pasture
