Unintended

I honestly had no intentions of taking these photos when I set out on my journey to find the bridge pictured below. In fact, I was on the hunt for a good spot to take some "motion blur" photos for my photography class, and the plan was to find this awesome old bridge because: one, I thought at least one train would go across it (I do live in College STATION for cryin' out loud); two, a train moves.. and I thought it would make a cool shot; and three, I've always wanted to take photos of this bridge. Welp, no train came by while I stood there for 45 minutes wandering around, trying not to get bit by something (mosquitoes mainly + some scary unknown thing in the brush), and I just ended up snapping pictures of the sunset and myself instead.

Hopefully, by the time everyone is reading this, I will have found a train to take pictures of.. But, you do get to see my elephant shirt! It's so fun, and I never thought I'd be buying a button-up with an animal printed all over it, but I did. The day I wore this, a girl actually came up behind me and said, "are those elephants all over your shirt?!" to which I nervously replied, "yes?". Apparently she loves elephants and was going to go buy one for herself right after class, ha! It was kinda creepy, but a compliment all the same. 

The location for all of these photos is slightly outside of Bryan, and every time I go out there.. it feels like what Texas A&M would've felt like 60 or 70 years ago. Lots of country, farms, ranches, and even cotton fields! I don't think I've ever noticed the cotton fields before, but I really wanted to stop and take pictures.. I just didn't know if that would be considered trespassing or not, so I just kept driving. Even though Texas makes me super angry with all of its crazy hot weather, I do love driving around here out in the open. You can see for miles and miles, and you never know what you might come upon.
