I’m sure I mixed up that pro wrestling reference. I don’t watch pro wrestling. I went to college. That being said, here are some pictures from Baby Got Rack’s day at the Pufferbilly Day Barbecue Contest: Marcus whipping up a batch of Marfins. Not to be confused with Scuffins. Which… Read More »Can You Smell What the People’s Champ is Cookin’?

I recently presented The Trophy for winning the 12th year of the Roundball Oracles to this year’s champion… Michelle Haupt It was an exciting NCAA Tournament and an equally exciting Roundball Oracles NCAA Tournament Pool.

I though I would be Johnny-on-the-Spot and guess this out as soon as I got back from Milwaukee, but I spent my weekend being in parades, helping give sermons, raising money through pie auctions, supping with friends and family, going on walks with Naima, going to baby showers, watching about… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 40 – BLUE

I actually have been pretty lax about photographing flowers this year. That is partially because the 2017 Photography 139 Calendar will go in a new direction. Partially because I haven’t even planted flowers in my yard this year. Partially because my daffodils didn’t bloom this year. Partially because I missed… Read More »For Russell

I would explain to you what is going on in this series of pictures from the folder 03-11-07, but you wouldn’t believe me. I’ll probably combine a bunch of folders for next Saturday’s walk down memory lane, but I bet there will be a picture of a Gra Lab timer… Read More »03-11-07
I’ve been looking forward to this week’s theme since I wrote it on a green Post-It Note and dropped it in the hat. Jesse Howard, long time Photography 139 supporter and apparent beard lover, entered his first submission. Hopefully it is the beginning of many more. Let’s look at the… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 30 – RUINS

After reading a book from THE DAILY SHOW I came upon the idea to have 9 people pose while conveying 9 different emotions. Many times I’ve thought about bringing back… Read More »Use Them. Enjoy Them.
