Photos of The Week: September 27th, 2025

These are the photographs I took this week.

I get to travel a lot for my job. So I take my camera along for drive-by photography. It seems to me that the economy in Louisiana moves East and West along I-20 and I-10. And I live in Central Louisiana. One of the recurring themes in these photographs is decaying buildings. I don’t go out of the way to find them, I have to go out of my why to find new construction. One of the things I like to imagine is what these buildings were like in their prime, with people bustling in an out of them. What kind of clothes did they wear? How did they talk? What did they eat for lunch?

I imagine this was once a thriving little grocery store. The painting makes the pain worse for me: It is fake.
I thought this man was interesting. He was shuffling material from one medical building to another across the street.
The crack in my windshield somehow makes this picture better. The kind of obscure photograph that you imagine a special agent gets on those old detective radio shows.
Cows have a special place in my heart.
“These cars always reminded me of fighter planes.” That’s what the man driving one told me once at a gas station 20 years ago. His was green though.
I wonder what kind of art is produced here. I like that old chair.
Something about the colors on this building speaks to me.
It was exhilarating being this close to a train.
This is probably my favorite picture from this week. I love this time of the morning. I imagine this is a scene from a book that you can’t put down.
I love these little lizards. Anything that eats bugs can hang around my house.
Name the title of the book that this could be the dust jacket for. That’s the kind of thing I think about when I am composing a shot.
Another good cover for a book about a haunted house.
