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

As you may recall, I like to check in on some statistics every 100 posts or so to see how things are doing in popularity. However, this statistical check-in will mark the end of an era. I am officially retiring the Snapshots Gallery and the Artistic Gallery. The advent of… Read More »Post 1200
There were a few submissions for GAMES. Here they are: Mike Vest Shannon Bardole Geri Derner Christopher D.

I was contacted a few weeks back by Shannon about doing some photography for the United Way campaign. They had a pretty specific request that required a fair amount of Photoshop expertise. Because I had not the time or the patience to complete the project I talked Mike Vest into… Read More »Live United

This is a tradition that I have gotten away from for awhile, but I do wish to start it up again. This photo tribute is my way of saying Happy birthday to Shannon. I believe Jen Gorshe is up next for the birthday photo tribute.
Last week I removed and disassembled the Friend Wall. It is no longer in existence. No longer do I have friends on my wall. I replaced the Friend Wall with the 9 Emotions Project Wall. The centerpiece of this new “exhibit” is a 24×36 print of the picture below. A… Read More »Personal Photo Project of the Week #70

Think Negative There were two points to this project. My first point was that I wanted to scan a negative. In this day and age, it is a borderline revolutionary act to use film. Unfortunately I have let too much time and space get between me and my film camera(s).… Read More »Personal Photo Project of the Week #60
