I Took Her Back and Made Her Dessert
These are the pictures that didn’t have what it takes for the FACELESS PORTRAIT theme for this week’s WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE: Sad. If only these images would believe in themselves.
WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 81 – FACELESS PORTRAIT
FACELESS PORTRAIT is challenging, but still, a handful of hearty photographers gave it a whirl. But you didn’t come here to listen to me talk all tommyrot about heart. You came to see the submissions: Mike Vest Suzanne Brannen Michelle Haupt Stephanie Kim Kim Barker Christopher D. Bennett Angie DeWaard… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 81 – FACELESS PORTRAIT

Ridin’ the Rails with Shorty Backlog – Vol. 2
More from when I rode the Boone & Scenic Valley Railroad with Shorty: Just a few photos left from that trip!
WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 80 – RURAL
A pretty solid week of submissions. Even the “New York Voice” was able to find some RURAL. But you didn’t come here to hear me talk all tommyrot about the quality of submissions. You cam here to see the submissions: Kim Barker Logan Kahler Stephanie Kim Angie DeWaard Christopher D.… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 80 – RURAL
07-12-07
The folder called 07-12-07 starts with some softball and ends with some pop art: Next Saturday’s folder seems to be squirrel heavy.
The Bennetts of 2017
Before Alexis took off for the Navy, Elainie came home. We used this as an opportunity for an impromptu family photo. Thanks to Ernie for taking the photo! More from this photo shoot coming at some point.
Ridin’ the Rails with Shorty Backlog – Vol. 1
Way back and July I rode the Boone & Scenic Valley Railroad with Shorty. Here are some of those pictures: More from that trip later.
But She Came Over
These are the pictures that didn’t have what it takes to make the cut for the theme ORANGE for the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE: If only these pictures believed in themselves, they may have gotten somewhere.
Biscuits and Gravy
A few weeks back, the Methodist Men had a Biscuits & Gravy Breakfast Fundraiser. Here are a few cruddy cell phone pictures from the event: It was quite the success! In fact, might have been too big of a success. We actually ran out of gravy. An error that will… Read More »Biscuits and Gravy

WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 78 – SILHOUETTE
Looks like the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE went on Spring Break. Perhaps SILHOUETTE is too challenging of a theme. I’m not sure, but participation numbers this week are as low as they’ve ever been. Worries me that the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE might be on the way out. I guess we’ll see… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 78 – SILHOUETTE

Test Shot
It has been about 4-5 years since I bought a new camera. Last week I decided that was long enough. I bought a new camera. Here is the first picture I took with the new camera: Good news. The new camera works! I might talk about it some more in… Read More »Test Shot
And Practiced All the Things I Would Say
These pictures didn’t have what it takes to make the cut for ANIMAL in this week’s WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE: If only these pictures just believed in themselves a little bit more… they might do great things.
WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 77 – ANIMAL
There seems to be a very strong recurring theme in the majority of this week’s submissions for ANIMAL. I didn’t get the weekly reminder out this week because I was sick most of last week and sickness always turns into laziness for me. But you don’t want to listen to… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 77 – ANIMAL
Post No. 2500
This blog has hit a milestone. This is the 2500th post since I started “An Artist’s Notebook” on August 9, 2006. A lot of different things have went through these pages over the last 10+ years, but I hope I’ve stayed true to the original vision I laid down in… Read More »Post No. 2500
WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 76 – GOVERNMENT
GOVERNMENT didn’t really ring a lot of people’s bells, which means it will definitely be back on the menu for the next set of themes. Why? I’m not a quitter. However, we are nearing the halfway point of the second set of themes since we rebooted the RANDOM WEEKLY PHOTO… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 76 – GOVERNMENT
Sprechen Sie Deutche, Baby – Gamma
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!
WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 74 – BLACK & WHITE
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
The Dome
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
