WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 12 – STILL LIFE

December 7, 2015 Christopher D. Bennett 3 Comments

If I didn’t already have an established protocol for the naming of the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE journal entries, I might have named this here entry: WHERE HAVE ALL THE DUDES GONE?

Male participation has declined dramatically in the last couple of weeks. I’m not complaining for personal reasons. I’ll never complain about being surrounded by such lovely ladies. I’m just saying its weak. Get on it men!

Here are this week’s submissions for STILL LIFE:

Angie DeWaard

Christopher D. Bennett

Kim Barker

Carla Stensland

Michelle Haupt

Shannon Bardole

Laura Miller

Time to look to the future and reveal this week’s theme:

GAMES!

But how does one define GAMES? I would define it like this:

GAMES – noun – a form of play or sport, especially a competitive one played according to rules and decide by skill, strength, or luck.

Nothing new from Photography 139’s Shameless Self-Promotion Divison to report.

As always, I look forward to seeing this week’s submissions!

Spray Paint the Vegetables

There were a few other RELIGION pictures I took the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE that didn’t make the cut. Thought I’d share a few of those.

I don’t know if there will be quite so many losers next week.

Flowers, State Fair

More State Fair?

Been a bit since I published a flower picture from my trip to the Iowa State Fair. Some would say too long.

Time to remedy that!

Every day we inch closer to the photo that got me kicked out of the Iowa State Fair flower garden.

Thanksgiving

December 2, 2015 Christopher D. Bennett

All the Bennetts were actually here for Thanksgiving this year, so we had to get a picture!

It might be the last chance to get a picture like this for a bit. With Alexis leaving for the Navy. Elainie already in the Navy. Logan getting ready to graduate from Iowa State University. But hopefully it isn’t!

Linda, Road Trip

The Driving Force

Wells have always been a source of fascination for me. But I’m also very glad that I don’t have to drink well water on a regular basis.

This well is from my Aunt Linda’s farm.

I actually didn’t throw anything into the well. I consider this a sign of maturity.
