I have a rather shocking confession. I have never done LSD. However, if I had tried LSD, I imagine the experience would be something like walking across the High Trestle Trail Bridge on a dark night. Several weeks back my cousin Sarah and my Aunt Linda were in town and… Read More »LSD the Bridge
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

The world wasn’t ready for these MACRO pictures for the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE on Monday. I’m not sure that the world is ready for them now, but I can’t hold them back any longer: The grand majority of these pictures were taken in my back yard. The first seven were… Read More »Season ‘Em, Put ‘Em on a Beat with Me, Then I’m Eating ‘Em
A month or so back, my church (Boone First United Methodist Church, represent!) had their annual-ish summer is over kickoff party. So it doesn’t really have a name. But a bunch of Methodists get together at Herman Park and throw down some food and have a good time. Here are… Read More »Ain’t No Party Like a Methodist Party!
The pictures in the folder called 11-23-07 are experimental photography heavy. This deleted scene from THE EXORCIST really hits you hard. The experimental pictures are images projected onto objects and then photographed again. The ones that are like “hey buddy, you’ve had enough LSD for tonight are being projected into… Read More »11-23-07
I might have posted these pictures earlier, but up until Saturday it still made me sick to think about how Iowa State blew a double digit to an inferior team from the other side of the state. Then Saturday happened. After Iowa State’s historic road victory over the #3 team… Read More »Time Doesn’t Heal Anything, It Just Teaches Us How to Live with the Pain
ART is one of my favorite themes. I love seeing what kind of ART that people have in their lives. This was a solid week of submissions.

A big thanks to everybody that came out and made my church’s Youth Group Fundraiser such a big hit. Our goal was to be #1 on the Pizza Ranch board and we nearly doubled the take of the previous #1!

Kio recently invited me to take some photos in the National Pet Memorial Day ceremony put on by the Boone Area Humane Society.

On Labor Day I was able to take a picture for Page 59 of the Photo Journal: Page 59 – Take a picture of yourself as yourself. Logan assisted with the production by moving the camera here and there.

Recently bought another photo toy. However, this time it isn’t a new piece of photo experiment. It is more like a photo prop. I should note that I also got this idea from Dawn. Here are few photos to break it in: You’ll be seeing this beauty again. Mark the… Read More »Yet Another New Photo Toy
The pictures in the folder 11-03-07 are from the Iowa State-Kansas State game. Including a couple pictures of a guy whose family owns a restaurant near Manhattan.

Page 119 in THE PHOTO JOURNAL PROJECT probably isn’t one that would appeal to most people. Some people might even call it a hipster page. Page 119 – Turn a DSLR into a Pinhole Camera Some of you might be asking, “What is a pinhole camera?” A pinhole camera is… Read More »A PHOTO JOURNAL – HENRY CARROLL – PAGE 119
A pretty decent amount of submissions to ring in Year 3 of THE WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE (REDUX). Including a submission from first time submitter Katelyn Augustin.

The pictures in the folder 10-31-07 display both a terrifying display of brute strength and a terrifying display of Halloween costumes. By dusting off these pictures and adding them to the current Smugmug Photo Gallery, I was able to restore the following blog posts: COSTUMES HP LASERJET 4100 I have… Read More »10-31-2017
