FIVE PICTURE FRIDAY! - Langtry, TX

Taken February 15, 2025

In the desert scrub beyond the Pecos river, the mildly notable town of Langtry, TX overlooks the Rio Grande. Somewhat famous as the home court of Judge Roy Bean, the community barely hangs on as a tourist pit stop on the way to Big Bend country. A small museum, a post office, and a variety of decaying homesteads mark the limestone outcrops and seasonal creek, echoing days long gone of railroad work crews and buffalo hunts.

About “Five Picture Friday”

Every other Friday, I produce a short photo-essay on an interesting location. I try to capture the essence of the place, distilled down into a few images. It’s a fun way to practice my photography, and I hope you enjoy a little armchair travel!
