Another Garry Winogrand photograph taken in Texas. This time in Austin, Texas. I like Texas. I like the way the letters look written down. It makes some kind of cowboy sense that that the X is in the middle of the name.
Over the years I've been there around three or four times. Mainly Dallas, but also Houston and Galveston and some smaller towns. Each time has been a slightly strange experience. I was there, for example, just days after Hurricane Katrina. That was a strange mixed up time for the locals and the people pouring in from New Orleans. So much, more than water, was rising to the surface.
There's a connection for me with Texas and my photographs. A relationship of sorts, but I don't, as yet, know what it is.
