Bronco - en plien air

This is my effort from David Lobenbergs' plien air class yesterday, my old Bronco. It's amazing how fast the sun moves and the shadows change. When we started the Bronco was in full shade and two and a half hours later it was in full sun. I split the difference and put it in half shade.

Attorney General Holder answers question by the House Oversight Committee about Fast and Furious, New Black Panther Party intimidating voters, I.R.S. scandal, A.P. scandal and he doesn't know nothin' about nothin'. Makes me wonder where he works.

Justified - Timothy Olyphant Portrait

'Justified' is one of my favorite T.V. drama shows. There's just something about a bad-ass good guy chasing the bad guys and kicking butt. If you haven't watched the show, you might want to check it out.
