These are from a few months ago when I went to the Houston Police Memorial to take some night shots of the Houston skyline. Turns out the memorial itself was much more interesting, both from a historical view and also photographically.
The first image isn't especially interesting, but it does show the shape of the memorial with the skyline behind it.
And I sort of cheated on the last one
Because it was dark I had a maglight in my pocket so that I could see where I was walking and used it for this shot.
On the second and third image you can see names etched into the stone. The name of every Houston police officer that has died while on duty, back to the 1800's, is on the memorial. It's a surprisingly powerful place, especially considering that there is always an HPD officer stationed to watch over the memorial.
