It's definitely Spring time in Texas. Here is a shot from downtown SATX from the riverwalk. I just love how the trees are filling out with vibrant green leaves. I do wish the boat wasn't there but that just means I have to return and try to get a shot without it.

I don’t find the boat objectionable. I love the light, makes me want to spend a lazy afternoon there.

Thanks so much. I'd think you would have a great doing that here.
Here is another I finished again from downtown SATX. The light was just so nice when I shot these series of images. I wanted to capture someone walking along the bridge and fortunately someone walking their dog walked into my scene. I love it when a plan comes together.

This and that from walking around in town.
#5 shows a 600 square meter mural by Italian artist Millo (Francesco Camillo Giorgino) created at a street art festival last summer.
@HelenaN - EVERY time I see your Burnside 35 photos I make a decision to buy that lens! So good. Of all the LensBaby offerings, I think it gives just the right amount of LensBaby look without over-doing it. Reminds me of a large format film image.

Thank you! That's really nice to read because that's the main reason to why I enjoy it so much. "Perfectly imperfect". Before getting Burnside I often wished for something between a regular lens and the more extreme Lensbabies (which are great too, but can be a bit too much if the subject isn't right). It is just so versatile. I don't often use it for nature though since I'm not a big fan of petzval type swirl, but perhaps it's an acquired taste because I'm (very) slowly warming up to it.
