The world wasn’t ready for these pictures on Monday, but I can’t hold them back any longer. Here are the alternates for WEATHER: 2 of the pictures were taken on Manhattan Hill in Manhattan, Kansas. 1 was taken on Old 30 east of Boone. The rest were taken down by… Read More »Any Photog that Say that they Runnin’ the Game I’mma Come in they Session and Cut Off They Legs, Woo!
I wasn’t sure how participation rates would go for WEATHER. Here in central Iowa, the weather couldn’t have been more boring. Which is amazing for this late in November. Plus I’m sure that the holiday didn’t help much either. That being said, it wasn’t a terrible week for participation. But… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 115 – WEATHER
I hope all of you had a marvelous Thanksgiving weekend! I had a particularly great Thanksgiving weekend myself. On Thursday morning I got up and went down to the church (Boone First United Methodist represent!) to take photos of our annual Thanksgiving. This is the second year in a row… Read More »Relationship Goals
Happy Black Friday! I hope you were able to get out there and adequately celebrate our nation’s self-destructive addiction to consumerism. I hope some of you hit it really hard to make up for the fact that I (most likely – I mean I know myself pretty well, but I’m… Read More »The 9 Emotions Project – Dae Hee Yoon
We celebrated Jonah’s 3rd birthday a couple Saturdays ago. I snapped a few photos. Here are a few I’d like to share: I’m already looking forward to the next little kids birthday party to which I get invited.
Back in August I went up to Minnesota to visit some of my favorite peeps, but I also had an ulterior motive. For years I’ve driven up to the Twin Cities area and just south of Lakeville I would come across a strange collection of sculptures on the east side… Read More »My Minnesota Spirit Animal
A few weeks back I spent the weekend up in Minnesota. I went with Bethany, Dae Hee, Nora, Sara Karber, and Shawn Karber to The Irish Fair.

These are the pictures that didn’t have what it takes to make the cut for the COLD theme for THE WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE: If only these pictures believed in themselves, there is no telling what they might accomplish.
I figured the participation rates for COLD would be more frigid than for YELLOW. And they were. Only the hardiest of participants braved the low temperatures of COLD photography and submitted a COLD picture. I expect this week’s theme to be a tough one as well. However, it isn’t all… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 100 – COLD
On the way back to Minnesota from Kansas, Bethany, Dae Hee, and Nora stopped by my place for some respite.

I considered it a perfect fit Page 12 of… Read More »A PHOTO JOURNAL – HENRY CARROLL – PAGE 12

I spent most of my Memorial Day enjoying my day off. Watching old war movies and grilling with the family. But the highlight of my day was seeing Nora for the first time in WAY TOO LONG! Which is completely my fault, but an error in my judgment that I… Read More »Memorial Day – 2017

Since a few people have been asking, I am making a formal announcement. THERE IS NO CHRISTOPHER D. BENNETT BIRTHDAY EXTRAVAGANZA AKA BENNETT-FEST THIS YEAR! The reasons are multiple and complicated, but it is probably your fault. If you search your heart, you know it to be true. So there… Read More »Valley Lodge is Closed

There weren’t many, but here are the images that didn’t make the cut for LOVE when it was the theme for the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE: Thanks for taking the time to mock this pathetic collection of losers!
There wasn’t as much LOVE in the world this week as one would have hoped. I’ll just hope that when we get to HATE, it isn’t a more popular option. But it is the world that we live in. But you don’t want to listen to me talk all tommyrot… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 63 – LOVE
Last weekend I took a trip up to Minnesota with Jesse and Nader to visit Bethany, Dae Hee, Nora, Sarah, and Shawn.
