If you are in Texas, a must stop is a boot shop! In Austin we have quite a few. Downtown off Congress Ave you can find the wonderful Allen’s Boots. Not only boots, but western wear as well (cowboy hats, shirts, belts). Not sure, but maybe you can find a lasso??? It is great to see all the boot styles and colors. Most Austin photographers have taken their share of boot photos…this was my first! Austin is a college town…the University of Texas (UT) Longhorns. The boots above are perfect for the UT fan! Hook em Horns!!
On a side note, I had my speech last nite at the Austin SMUG Meeting. I’d like to thank Jason St. Peter (Blog: 50% Chance of Rain)…he runs the meetings…for letting me speak about IR Photography. I had a wonderful time and it was a great pleasure to meet all the fantastic people that attended last nite! We had a great turnout. It was my first photography speech ever and I loved it! Thanks again everyone! Hope you are all IR experts!

The boot shop didn’t mind you setting up a tripod? Will be trying out HDR Efex Pro when I return from my next trip. Thanks for your comparisons!
Scott, I walked in with the tripod and asked politely! They said no problem! I had fun for about 45 minutes! Gotta love Texas hospitality! =)
Congrats on your speech! I LOVE the detail in these boots.
Thanks Amber! I had a great time! 2 hours long…had no idea I could talk that long! LOL
