This mural is on the wall in a stairwell at the Houston Museum of Natural Science. It's lit such that the colors appear to glow, which immediately drew me to it.

I am working on a minor site redesign. If things look different or weird, that's why.

A smallish (2-3 feet tall) dinosaur skeleton on display behind glass at the Houston Museum of Natural Science. The pose they have this guy in really struck me. Obviously his mouth is open and teeth are bared, but his little arms were also clawing in front of him. Eek!

Shot with my lens pressed up against the glass of an aquarium in a classroom at the Houston Museum of Natural Science. The tank was lit by fluorescent lights that reflected off the red and blue shiny fish inside. They hung out in the back of the tank, behind a huge plastic plant, flitting back and forth.
