In-N-Out Burger time! On Kodak Ultramax 400 film.

In-N-Out Grapevine Texas at night. Kodak Ultramax 400.

My first In-N-Out visit was my third In-N-Out visit

My visit to the Grapevine Texas In-N-Out was my 3rd time inside In-N-Out. First time was in Los Angles, in 2007. Second time was in Phoenix Arizona, in 2014. But unlike the other times this was the first time I actually ate.

I ordered a plain double double with cheese. Fries and a Coke (obviously). I loved it! I was also somewhat star stuck thinking Wow I'm in an In-N-Out and I ordered a burger. Sounds odd but its true, I was excited to finally eat their burger.

I really enjoyed the burger. It was simple and simple is hard to do because it usually means quality. Wish they had them in Florida!

The fries flavor reminded me of those potato sticks in a can. They were fresh but I prefer the fries from BurgerFi.

I wish they had a location in Florida!

Got a couple more for the hotel room.

Lancaster Theatre neon sign Grapevine Texas. Shot with Flash on Kodak Gold 200 film, Nikon F80s camera.

Both are almost identical. Thou, I prefer the no flash photo. Only because the pedestrian street sign reflecting the flash light back, it's focusing the attention away from the neon sign.

No, you can't have fun here. You might as well just go home.

Huge bird flying parallel to traffic

It seems obvious and in some ways it’s intuitive, but until I actually said it, I never really got it. To capture a good photo, you need to capture the light.

The light is always the subject.

It’s hard to get a beautiful color photo without good light. If you follow the light, like in many ways in life, you'll find God, you'll find Jesus Christ and maybe you’ll get a nice photo too.

Follow the light, worship the Creator, not the creation.

Let's hope my eclipse photo is better than this hotel room lamp photo.
