As with everything else I do in this life, I am always experimenting. I am a man of searching for that next great moment. During lunch I took a small hike to a cemetery in Allen, TX. I pulled out the camera and attached the new found fisheye lens and started firing away. The lens itself has its ups and downs, one being that it is an exterior lens and has to be manually focused. All things aside it is a nice lil tool to work with. After pa-rousing through the cemetery taking random photos I stumbled across this monk like figure. The reason I chose this monk for today's blog post is because, A few months back whilst in Goliad, TX I ran across a monk very similar to this one. Now thinking about it it may have been the exact same style of statue with one exception. The other monk was outfitted with a headband, denoting that the departed was a blue collar worker. Hispanics wear headbands to keep the sweat off their brow, so in an effort to get the message across the person who left behind the monk, fashioned a simple headband to the one in Goliad. I knew the moment I snapped this picture that it would be tonight's photo. Sometimes the photo is the one who chooses you, and I in all intentions believe this was one of those moments in time.
