I like this picture because it helps me pretend like I have that drone that I want to get: But alas, I’m only standing on a bridge and looking down.

Now is as good of a time as any to share another one of my favorite pictures from the Woman’s March down in Des Moines in January. I still haven’t had a chance to sit down and power through these pictures. Hoping I have time for that sometime soon. PARTICULARS… Read More »Red, White, and Blue and Pink
A quick break for an advertisement! Hey if you are free on Wednesday nights and generally hungry on Wednesday nights, do I have a deal for you! Come down to the Boone First United Methodist Church at 6 PM for a Spaghetti Dinner. The cost is an at-will offering! Can’t… Read More »Get Your Ash On!
Here are the MUSIC photos that didn’t have what it takes to be included in this week’s WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE. Thanks for taking the time to help me mock this pathetic collection of losers!
Most people seem to have adjusted to the new way of things. As participation rates didn’t spike, but they also didn’t fall… too far. But you didn’t come here to listen to me talk all tommyrot about participation rates. You came to see this week’s submissions. Here are the submissions… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 75 – MUSIC
I promise, there won’t be so many MUSIC pictures that weren’t up to snuff. Thanks for taking the time to help me mock this pathetic collection of losers!
These pictures were taken near my Mom’s alley. Next Saturday’s folder will involve a southern Boone County road trip I took back in 2007.
I had a request that there be multiple posts about the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE theme from somebody this week because they find it difficult to keep track of the weekly theme. I told this person that Photography 139 isn’t a nanny state and that to do such runs contrary to… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE REMINDER – MUSIC
The remainder of the BLACK & WHITE photos that didn’t make the cut for the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE from the BLACK & WHITE PHOTO ROAD TRIP. However, it isn’t the end of the rejects: Thanks for taking the time to help me mock this collection of pathetic losers.
I read on Twitter once about a place claiming to be “the most photographed waterfall in Iowa”. Now I don’t know how they document that claim, especially when what they are referring to is actually a spillway, but I suppose water does fall over it. Either way, this “waterfall” was… Read More »Sprechen Sie Deutche, Baby – Beta
I went on a rather extensive BLACK & WHITE road trip on Saturday. Here is the first collection of pictures that didn’t make the cut for the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE. Taken in north Boone County. Thanks for taking the time to help me mock this pathetic collection of losers!
Happy Valentine’s Day from Photography 139! As this is a romantic holiday, I would like to share one of my favorite quotes from my favorite romantic movie of all time (500) DAYS OF SUMMER: Tom works for a greeting card company.

A great week of participation, which has me all amped up, since BLACK & WHITE is my favorite theme. But you don’t want to listen to me talk all tommyrot about participation rates. You want to see the submissions. Here they be: Kim Barker Christopher D. Bennett Shannon Bardole Stephanie… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 74 – BLACK & WHITE
Mostly train photos in the folder they call 06-28-07: Next week’s folder seems to be ground squirrel heavy.

Last Sunday Mom, Teresa, Vi, and I loaded up into the car and traveled to the great north to visit Andrea, Josh, Wesley, and Grace. It was a great time, but perhaps the highlight was going up into Andrea’s church’s dome with Josh. Here are a few of my favorite… Read More »The Dome
I’ve never revealed the rejects for a Monday reveal picture before. Mostly because the pictures are usually just a quick snapshot of something that fits the theme to be revealed. However, I really like some of the photos that I didn’t use for revealing BLACK & WHITE as this week’s… Read More »Black & White Reveal Rejects
Here are the photos that didn’t make the cut for ABSTRACT in the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE: Thanks for taking the time to mock this collection of pathetic losers!

Here are the submissions for ABSTRACT: Kim Barker Logan Kahler Stephanie Kim Sarah Karber Angie… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 73 – ABSTRACT
The rest of the 06-27-07 folder. Lots of changes to that family in 10 years. Next Saturday’s walk down memory lane will involve a train.
I took some photos of the Stenslands back in May. Probably should show you some of them at this point. Here are some of my favorites. Not sure when this group of people will be together again. Alexis leaves for the Navy in the next few weeks. Elainie still has… Read More »Stensland Family Backlog Cleanout
