Back Frog
Another time to hit up the backlog. These pictures I took on May 8: It was these last few photos that lead to the Great Jake Sullivan Failure.
LKWBG
I recently visited my nephew Logan at his internship at KWBG to check out his digs. Took a couple pictures too: It is possible that some of these photos were staged. It is also possible that some of them aren’t. It is Schrodinger’s pictures, only it isn’t.
Them Photogs, They Coming Up on Me; I Cut Off the Ladder, And I Told ‘Em,”Bye-Bye”
More alternatives for COLORFUL that the world couldn’t handle on Monday. I’m hoping it can handle them now: Most of these photos were taken at Boone First United Methodist Church. A few were taken in the campustown area of Ames. The pictures of Naima were taken in the Photography 139… Read More »Them Photogs, They Coming Up on Me; I Cut Off the Ladder, And I Told ‘Em,”Bye-Bye”
WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 124 – COLORFUL
A pretty decent amount of people had their creative bell rung by COLORFUL. At least that is what I will tell myself to get to sleep tonight. But you didn’t come here to listen to me talk all tommyrot about participation rates. You came to see the submissions: ANDY SHARP… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 124 – COLORFUL

Algona is an Anagram for Analog
Still hammering away at that back log. Here are a few pictures from my trip to Algona with Joe. We went to Algona so Joe could pick up a van to server as a distribution center for his cannabis oil business. The trip didn’t work out. We didn’t come home… Read More »Algona is an Anagram for Analog
Zinnia Sale
A bit from the old backlog. These pictures were taken on July 20. The zinnias were photographed in my very own Photography 139 Flower Garden. The garage sale pictures were from my Grandma’s somewhat controversial garage sale. I think that is the spin doctor way to describe the garage sale.… Read More »Zinnia Sale
Happy Anniversary Juncks!
As you become aged, you get invited to less and less parties. I think I was invited to 3 toddler birthday parties and 1 anniversary party last year. I think that was it. My entire social calendar for 2017. The anniversary party was for the parents of Sara and Steven… Read More »Happy Anniversary Juncks!
Y’all Better Watch It, Take A Look at Where the Clock Is, It’s My Time!
On Monday the world wasn’t ready for these FOOD pictures. I’m not sure the world is ready for them yet, but I can’t hold them back any longer: Most of the FOOD pictures were taken at the concession stand at dear old Boone High School. I worked a shift there… Read More »Y’all Better Watch It, Take A Look at Where the Clock Is, It’s My Time!
WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 123 – FOOD
There was a healthy participation rate this week for FOOD, but I have to confess that I thought it would be even more popular. After all, every single person that is reading these words ate FOOD last week. Perhaps were still in the Seasonal Photography Depression Window. But thanks to… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 123 – FOOD

Weekly Photo Challenge – Week 122 – High Perspective
I usually start this blog post with a statement on how participation rates went this week, but this week I’m going to start the week differently. A recent subscriber and often contributor to the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE Tamara Peterson’s husband Glenn recently got a tough diagnosis and they have a… Read More »Weekly Photo Challenge – Week 122 – High Perspective
Mine Eyes Have Seen the Glory of the Coming of the Lord
Tomorrow is Martin Luther King Jr. Day. I think that is as apropos a time as any to share some pictures from my recent trip to the Civil Rights Museum in Memphis: I have a well known love of history, but at the same time, I’m not really a museum… Read More »Mine Eyes Have Seen the Glory of the Coming of the Lord
02-10-08/LWL
The images in today’s post came from the folder 02-10-08/lwl. They are from a photo shoot for Shannon’s Little White Lye Soap company. These are how I would edit them today, if I still had the contract: A reminder that you can buy your own Little White Lye Soap at… Read More »02-10-08/LWL
Freedom Flight Sendoff
A few months back I went to the Freedom Flight Sendoff and snapped a few pictures. Here are a few of them: I went to the Freedom Flight Sendoff to see Jesse’s Dad, but I was surprised when Derrick’s Dad got up and gave an impromptu speech about the sacrifice… Read More »Freedom Flight Sendoff
Daisy, Daisy
Dipping into the backlog again. These pictures were taken on June 4. The majority of these pictures were taken at McHose Park. The other two were taken in my Grandma’s backyard.
The Postcard Recreation Project – Teddy Roosevelt
A few months back Jen sent me a text message out of the blue suggesting that I should try to recreate (update) old postcards. It seems like a perfect fit for me, since I might be the last person on the world who really loves postcards and even occasionally sends… Read More »The Postcard Recreation Project – Teddy Roosevelt
Just Let Me Do What I Do Best; You’re Better Off Playing Russian Roulette
The world wasn’t ready for these alternates for last week’s WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE theme RUINS. Not sure the world is ready yet, but I can’t hold them back any longer: Most of these pictures were taken down at the Kate Shelley Museum in Moingona.

A Photo Journal – Henry Carroll – Page 29
In early December I made a trip down to Des Moines with Anders to see THE DISASTER ARTIST. Before the movie we supped at the Jordan Creek Zombie Burger.
