Delving into the 2019 backlog. This is a collection of pictures that span a couple different trips to Dickcissel Park with Naima. Most of the pictures are from the second trip where we encountered a wounded goose. The goose had been injured some way above its leg. It was out… Read More »Wild Goose Chase
This morning’s post is a collection of some rando photos I took across a couple of days. A couple are of Naima, but most are taken in the Boone County Hospital Pond. Feels like we are getting down to the nitty-gritty of the 2019 backlog. But there are still some… Read More »Raggle-Taggle
One of the problems with being so far behind in photo editing is that I come across a collection of pictures and I vaguely remember why I took them. I believe that I took most of this pictures when I was dinking around with the “toy camera” setting on the… Read More »Hasbro
I need to start today by wishing the happiest of birthdays to Faust! It has been a couple of years since I saw Faust in person. When this virus passes, he will be on the shortlist of people I need to go visit. And not just because he lives in… Read More »WPC – WEEK 239 – ART
This collection of images from the 2019 backlog are from December. The pictures of Naima I took out at her favorite stomping grounds, Dickcissel Park. The pictures of Willy are from track at Goeppinger Field. The Willy pictures are alternates for the THE WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE theme of SPORTS/GAMES. Really… Read More »Chewed Up and Spit Out and Booed Off Stage
I took several pictures of my sad, pathetic, battered, old trombone. These are the ones that didn’t make the big cut for the big show on Monday. That poor trombone should probably go in the trash, but I worry that the trash man wouldn’t even accept it. +++++++ This is… Read More »The Numbing Sensation of Everything
Another post hitting up the 2019 backlog. This post is a collection of a few different photo outings, but perhaps none of them had enough pictures to have their own post. Some pictures are flowers from my Grandma’s house. Then there are some pictures from the Youth Group Pool Party.… Read More »Piebald
Hitting up the 2019 backlog with a collection of pictures I took on the same day as when I took Taylan’s Senior pictures. Some are of flowers. Some are of Naima. Some are of Logan and Mom leaving one of the worst restaurants we’ve ever eaten at. Still a long… Read More »Multifarious
Day 3 of working from home. I thought I was going to talk about how a positive of working from home was how soft my feet are becoming. But I’ll cover that at a later date. Today’s positive about working from home is that Naima has actually started to hang… Read More »I Always Credit My Enemy
I took Thursday and Friday off this week to watch basketball. Obviously there is no basketball right now. There is no basketball for at least a month and there is no NCAA Tournament this year at all. I wasn’t sure if I was going to still take these two days… Read More »I Don’t Know Why You’re Mean to Me
Other than a couple sets of Senior pictures, this small collection of pictures represents the balance of the July 2019 backlog. These pictures were taken in my backyard, except the picture of Naima. It is hard to recollect, but I believe that I was playing around with extension tubes. Playing… Read More »The Poetry That’s Hidden
Happy Friday the 13th everybody! Considered to be a very unlucky day, but considering how bad of a shape our country is in right now, I don’t want to invite any more bad luck. So I am going to celebrate by watching a Friday the 13th movie tonight. Not sure… Read More »Hurting My Head from Things that I Said
23 weeks! 23 straight weeks of double digit submission! Now JUNK wasn’t a super popular theme. I think it is mostly a Bennett thing to like to hang out surrounded by JUNK. Not garbage but JUNK. I went and wandered around my favorite local JUNK pile, even though I thought… Read More »WPC – WEEK 234 – JUNK
Need to start today by wishing a happy birthday to my mission trip and youth group buddy Andy! 5 or 6 years ago or however long it was when we first went to Martin, South Dakota together I never would have guessed how good of friends we would end up… Read More »Dickcisselin’
I recently purchased a new camera. I don’t want to go into the details about what I am calling an “adult decision” at this time because when I open up on the details I’ve why I bought what I bought and the intricacies of the new camera and what it… Read More »The New Hotness
A few weeks ago I decided to buy a new camera. This isn’t the post about the new camera, because that one is going to get pretty deep into the weed, but this is a post that is happening because of that decision. The short version is that because of… Read More »I Just Smile, Once in a While
Today’s collection of images are cleaning up a couple of days worth of images from back in July that were taken, but weren’t the main theme of my photo aspirations for that day. One of the pictures is from when my people took me to Kamrar for a birthday dinner.… Read More »Slapdash
Today’s entry is a collection of random May images from last year. Some are from a trip to Dickcissel with Naima. One is a horrible green screen experiment. There is a picture of Jason from when we put my mom’s ceiling back together. Last year my Mom’s ceiling fell on… Read More »70% Playing with Stuff
These are the first flower pictures I took in 2019 in my own yard. There are also a couple of bonus Naima pictures, since she was there too. On further reflection, I would say that some of these flowers are actually from my Mom’s yard. Definitely the tulip.
I would be remiss if I didn’t open today without wishing everybody a Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Today, I want to share some of his words following the end of the Montgomery Bus Boycott. Often our movement has been referred to as a boycott movement. The word boycott,… Read More »WPC – WEEK 227 – TEXTURE
Last Saturday I took Naima for a walk around Ledges to take a picture for the HDR theme of THE WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE. Obviously I took more photos than the one I shared. Here are the ones that didn’t make the cut: Since HDR (true HDR) is the taking of… Read More »The Constant Shame of My Existence
