Taking photos of homes in Texas poses completely different challenges than I faced when I first started back in Wisconsin. Snow and ice are never issues, and grey skies are a rarity, but July and August are hotter than bloody blazes and fog and humidity (and sunscreen in my eyes) create their own unique challenges. One thing I've learned is to always wear my boot when photographing country properties. This time, I did NOT because it was so hot. Instead I wore regular walking shoes. I knew immediately that I would be walking around this pond to get just the right shot. I was careful and made a lot of noise, but I still startled a big water snake. He shot out of the grass and into the pond like I had launched him out of canon. Snakes don't bother me at all, but it did remind me to wear my boots, no matter how hot it is. That perfect photo is worth sweaty feet!
