The Eagle Ford Shale

I took a trip last week through the Eagle Ford Shale drilling area of south Texas. I wanted to see the oil and gas boom in action and first hand. I met a few interesting folks along the way, including the two men I met in a Carrizo Springs, Texas barbecue joint – Wes Baucom, left, and Terry Vaughn. Both are from other towns in Texas and have been working in the oil fields for many years.

I’ve recently been shooting more and more of the neighborhood I live in, essentially bordered inside the 77006 zip code. This will be one of those long, ongoing projects that probably won’t ever end until I move somewhere else. Anyone know what kind of fruit is on the tree in the background?

I’m not sure if you’re a Lady Antebellum fan. If you are, you’ll be happy to know I was assigned to photograph them last night at Rodeo Houston for the Houston Chronicle. Below is my favorite photo from the take.

The adventures of photographing typewriter repairmen continues with Ross Herdejurgen, 83, who has been repairing typewriters since 1947. He has been in his current shop since 1973. He poses next to a pre-1948 Royal manual typewriter. This image was shot on chrome, which I can only get processed locally. The C-41 batch should arrive next week. Stay tuned..
