<02/11/2023] 02/13/2023 - FM3503 & Loop 338 S [02/14/2023>
The destination in mind wasn't this but the route I planned to get there yielded these images. The bonus was I got Loop 338 S put on my radar as a road to travel and explore.
Something to photograph and a reason to stop. Building on the corner property. 1 of 2.
Building on the corner property. 1 of 2.
This was hidden in plain sight and discovered because I like to photograph the street signs to keep as a record of where the session images come from.

<02/14/2023] 02/15/2023 - 23rd & Moss ave [02/17/2023>
see also On a smaller scale for 1 more images.
It was in passing I saw these wonderful ruins (to me anyway) and found my way back to them. I parked a few blocks away so found a scene along the road as I walked back.
On the corner property I found this bench to share here, the pictures from this property I am not posting though.
Down the road along Moss another property had this trailer that caught my eye.

<02/15/2023] 02/17/2023 - Walking downtown [02/18/2023>
Mostly just a random walk in a few blocks with no images in particular in mind. The one thing I didn't think about was checking my settings so with the exception of the last image taken was at ISO-640 and not the ISO-100 I default to, a faster exposure setting resulted but really didn't see much difference.
The initial image of the session near the Ector County Library.
Stairs at a church.
Walked down an alley to see this.
I saw these grates and looking down this pattern caught my eye.

<02/17/2023] 02/18/2023 - UTPB walking trail [02/20/2023>
Interesting patterns of winter on the right of the trail.
A rock and tree along the trail.
An interesting sight that seems like an odd combination for a compromise.
The road is bridged over with drainage pipes below but one of them made a good framing device for the ditch along the trail.

With existing light and dark the scenes I see don't always catch my eye but this restaurants facade did.
A delivery truck and a driver somewhere working to keep the economy going in the early morning hours.

<02/21/2023] 02/22/2023 - 87th & Dartmouth [02/23/2023>
I aimed for a very generic target of a left turn at the far end of Hwy 385, the idea of being a possible backside view of a golf course. Passed by due to no interest so I traveled around and found something of interest anyway.
The place was called Izzy's but the self service pumps was out of place.
A closer look at one of the pumps.
The chairs struck me as somewhat unusual.
One little place and so many unrelated subjects made for one final image.

see also While the city sleeps for 1 more image.
Time is relative and a 3am session isn't the normal time frame but when I do one I get a rare view of Odessa and some challenges in processing images.
Taco Villa.
Starbucks.
Between some builds and a reflection, the challenge being to redirect the eye.
