My One Regret
Traveling and experiencing new places is something that I have always enjoyed. My one regret is that my furthest adventure to Vienna, Austria for a total of 5,596 miles from my then home of Houston, Texas, also happened 10 years before I discovered the delight of photography.

Aimless Weaving
While hiking along trails, I often come across some trees with interesting curly vines. Some seem very methodical in their growth or swirls as the one above. Then, there’s the one below that is irregular with aimless weaving within itself. The second one is much like what my hiking app shows as the pattern of…
