After an afternoon photographing an outdoor Living History event at San Antinio’s Institute of Texas Cultures, I walked passed the main museum exhibit space just as the museum was closing. The brightly neon lit Texas flag caught my eye and I got a couple of shots, but it needed something else. Quickly seeing a museum docent closing up his desk for the day, I asked if he’d step in front of the lit flag. The result, a bold silhouette with cowboy hat and Texas resolve, has been used in magazine spreads and as a Nikon advertisement.
