Unsolved My Personal Photo Project this week was to photograph the most famous allegedly haunted house in Iowa. The Villisca Axe Murder House. I will state that I don’t believe in ghosts, but I am open to the possibility of their existence. In the same vein, I’m open to the… Read More »Personal Photo Project No. 185
The Little White City Another one of Shannon and I’s stops on the Southwest Iowa Road Trip was to Stanton. We went there for two reasons. One was to eat lunch (that ended in abysmal failure, well we did eat lunch, but only the onion rings are worth talking about)… Read More »Personal Photo Project #183
Now that I am officially caught back up with my blogging, I’d like to do a little bit of general house cleaning and look at some completely meaningless statistics. First of all and most importantly, the Gallery/Store has experienced a complete redesign. It could still be classified as a work… Read More »Post No. 1718
$80 The first scheduled stop on Shannon and I’s road trip itinerary was the grounds of a former 19th century cult that had a colony near Corning, called the French Icarians. They had some pretty crazy beliefs like: Fraternity. As a rule of conduct, three principles summarize all: Love your… Read More »Personal Photo Project No. 181
Here is a collection of my favorite Instagram postings from May and June: I can’t wait to find out what adventures I had in July and August!
A Rock Painted to Look Like a Rock I recently went on a road trip through southwest Iowa with Shannon. While the Freedom Rock was not on the original itinerary, a quirk of fate (i.e. bad traffic on I-80), and my famous love for bad art (I even once went… Read More »Personal Photo Project No. 179

I was commissioned to photograph the Story County Philanthropy Day Luncheon. Here are a few images from the event: Next week’s Wednesday randomness will involve Layla.
Monday night Obama made his last campaign stop ever in the East Village in Des Moines. I attended his first ever campaign stop in Iowa at Hilton Coliseum all the way back in 2007 with Jen and Derrick and maybe Willy. I figured that I should be there for the… Read More »Omega

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of photographing the wedding of Amy Davis and Rick Hahn. Here are a few of my favorite pictures from the experience. I need to thank Shannon for assisting me during this wedding. She was a tremendous help.
I have to confess that I did flop a couple (nearly all) of these days around for convenience and to work around special events. This is a practice I don’t condone, but one that I won’t shy away from in the future. The 3rd 7 days of the 365 Day… Read More »365 Day Photo Challenge: 15-21

Now that I am caught back up, I’d like to step back and take stock of where this journal has went since its inception on August 9, 2006. Since the last time I looked at these statistics, I have completed changed galleries. I can no longer show you what are… Read More »Blog No. 1447
Shine A special thanks to Shannon for acting as photo assistant for this project. A task that was more time consuming than arduous. Consider that in the 5 hours that we worked on this project, I took about 25 pictures. I also drove to at least 3 different locations just… Read More »Personal Photo Project of the Week #126

A few weeks back I posted about a collection of photos of mine that grace the wall of the United Way of Story County’s lobby wall. I finally got a chance to get down there to see the wall in its glory on Saturday before Shannon and I went to… Read More »United Way Wall
Shannon contacted me about contributing some photos to the wall near her desk at the United Way of Story County office a couple months back. I was able to get those pictures ordered for her and she got them on the wall a couple weeks back. I don’t have a… Read More »United Way Wall
I only had time last year to make a handful of calendars. If you didn’t get a calendar this year, I am sorry. I only had one left and I gave it to Nader because he actually called and asked for one. If somebody begged I suppose I could print… Read More »Personal Photo Project of the Week #99
