In Washington county Texas, home of the larger city Brenham, Texas, bluebonnets are everywhere. Also, in Brenham is Must Be Heaven https://www.mustbeheaven.com/ my favorite eatery when I head to Washington County. They have the best sandwiches and homemade pies. This time I opted for the Italian Hoagie and a slice of coconut creme pie. There is nothing like wide open country roads, beautiful flowers, wildlife, and great food. In Texas we call that a “ROAD TRIP!” Here a few photos I took along the way. I hope you enjoy them!

Smither Park Houston 2024

Do you ever say, “What am I going to see today? Today was one of those days for me and I decided to head on over to Smither Park which is part of the Orange Show. You can read more about it here https://www.full.orangeshow.org/smither-park It was my first visit and to say I enjoyed the art is an understatement. I immediately started taking photos because I was amazed at all the mosaics which I know have a lot of time and effort invested into them. It was a beautiful day, and I captured some beautiful art. I hope you enjoy the photos and visit yourself.
Photographic Textures in the Wild
Posted: January 16, 2024 in PhotographyTags: Digital photography, Huntsville State Park, macro photo, Nature, Photography, United States
On a recent seven-mile hike, I decided to capture textures while shooting photos. All around me I was amazed at the different textures. There is so much to see when one truly opens their eyes. For me when I look around the world, I see God’s hand. The complexity of every single organism. The design and innerworkings of every creature benefiting from each other. Often, I think of this verse, Romans 1:20,” For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So, they are without excuse.” I hope you enjoy these photographs as much as I enjoyed shooting them. 2024 Albert Moyer, Jr., Photography

A few photos that I recently shot at the Houston Arboretum. There was so much more to see and take pictures of but some of the birds and other creatures were to fast to shoot. You don’t catch them all. Ha ha!
Louisiana Cajun Country 2021
Posted: March 23, 2021 in Photography, TravelTags: Digital photography, Louisiana, Travel and Tourism
My love of South Louisiana begins with the solid value system of the Cajuns. They are a proud people who value family, having a good time, helping others, and God. They are humble, frugal, and know not to waste resources. The South Louisiana environment is swampy and humid and it provides all that one needs. It may not be for everyone, but I love it. Here are a few photos from my road trip. I hope you enjoy them. All photos Copyright Albert Moyer, Jr 2021

Located in the Petit Jean River Valley of Arkansas is a beautiful state park with many hiking trails, a swimming pool, tennis courts, lake, fishing, etc. I really liked Cedar Falls. If you look close you will see the falls in the hole. The valley was amazing! The rock formations are called the turtles and the cave is Rock Cave. Here are a few of my photos while hiking several areas. For more information visit here https://www.arkansasstateparks.com/parks/petit-jean-state-park

A few photos from my visit to this exceptional park in Arkansas. In the Bible Mount Nebo is the place where Moses died. Perhaps the name for this park is derived from the similarities in mountains. These photos were taken along the rim trail. To learn more about this park visit here https://www.arkansasstateparks.com/parks/mount-nebo-state-park
