Gate at Alamo Village

Piece description from the artist

Looking out of the gate in the wall around the Alamo Village seeing the rugged landscape of the Texas Bad Lands. John Wayne had a vision and made it a reality with the motion picture "The Alamo." The Village has been closed now for over a decade. It was the filming location of many commercials as well as numerous movies. Having the opportunity to walk around and photograph there a couple of time before it closed was an enjoyably adventure.

About Charles McKelroy

Lake Jackson, TX

Charles “Dennis” McKelroy’s interest in photography started soon after graduation from High School. Dennis has taken several courses in photography to advance his knowledge in the art; first with film, and recently with digital.
His interest has mostly been nature, wildlife, scenic, and still life. He has traveled extensively around Texas as well as other parts of the United States, Mexico, and other countries. Having been raised in southeast Texas along the Gulf coast many of his images have been captured locally. West Texas also holds a special interest to him. The Texas hill country, desert and areas around the Big Bend, Alpine, and the Davis Mountains high plains are subjects you'll find among his collections. Dennis looks for original subjects that have not been previously captured; going to out of the way places in search of the everyday scenes that are usually overlooked.
Dennis’ equipment is mostly Canon professional camera bodies and lenses. All of his photos are of original subjects edited to as near as possible as what Dennis saw at the time of capture.
Thank you for your interest. I’m honored you took the time to look through the collections and hope that you will find an image to fulfill your need.
