The Spice

This project was to take pictures with the Partial Color (Red) setting on the Alpha 35. Many of these pictures are failed experiments. Although I don’t really think any experiment is actually a failure.

Thomas Edison was once asked if he felt bad for failing on his attempt to make a light bulb a 100 or so times. He said something like, “I didn’t fail making the light bulb 100 times. I learned how not to make a light bulb 100 times.”

Then he went back to electrocuting cats. He was a swell guy, old Tom Edison.

Here are a few more pictures from The Spice Series:

Once again, I was hired to do the photography for Story County Philanthropy Day. Here are a few of the photos from the event:

Before the Swallow Dares

These daffodils were in my Mom’s room in Methodist during Daffodil Days. If you don’t know what Daffodils Days is, let me quote from the American Cancer Society Website:

You can give hope to people facing cancer and save lives by supporting the American Cancer Society Daffodil Days program. The Daffodil Days program is your chance to fight back against cancer by raising funds and awareness to help beat the disease. While the Daffodil Days program involves offering daffodils every spring to donors in appreciation for their contributions, it is about more than just giving beautiful flowers – it is everyone’s opportunity to create a world with less cancer and more birthdays, where cancer never steals another year from anyone’s life.
The dollars you raise through the Daffodil Days program do make a difference. Your support allows the American Cancer Society to save lives and create a world with more birthdays by helping people stay well and get well, by finding cures, and by fighting back against cancer.

I was a ringbearer in my aunt Lori and uncle Roger’s wedding. Hence the sweet brown tux.

A few pictures from Logan’s cross country meet…

If memory serves correctly, Logan placed either 2nd or 3rd at this meet.
