There weren’t many, but here are the images that didn’t make the cut for LOVE when it was the theme for the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE: Thanks for taking the time to mock this pathetic collection of losers!
I was able to snap a few photos of my church’s (Boone First United Methodist) Community Thanksgiving Dinner. Here are a few of my favorites: I believe they served close to 400 people this year.
Pretty good participation rates for MACRO. One of my personal favorites. But you don’t want to hear me talk all tommyrot about participation rates, you want to see the submissions: Angie DeWaard 1 Angie DeWaard 2 Bill Wentworth Becky Perkovich Jeff Kewer 1 Jeff Kewer 2 Kim Barker 1 Kim… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 66 – MACRO
A few photos here are from when I was experimenting with adding texture to photos organically. Next Saturday’s folder will include a look at the work of a young artist.
This day up and kicked me in the face, but no excuses. No more waiting. Here are the pictures for FAMILY for THE WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE: Michelle Haupt Mike Vest Christopher D. Bennett Angie DeWaard Sarah Karber Bill Wentworth Teresa Kahler 1 Teresa Kahler 2 Teresa Kahler 3 Teresa Kahler… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 65 – FAMILY
A wide variety of photos from the folder named 06-09-07: Next week’s folder has some Becca in it.
Here is the April image for the 2017 Photography 139 Calendar: This picture goes into a category (it is a fairly stacked category) of, “I really love this photo but I’m not sure many other people will.” Different strokes for different folks. I love pictures of deterioration. Plus the license… Read More »2017 Photography 139 Calendar April
This was definitely a tough week for participation rates. It was even a little tough for me. The early sunset. The national depression. The busy holidays. It has been tough the last few weeks. I get it. Hopefully there will be a bounce back next week. But you don’t want… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 64 – TOWN
A few weeks back I took Nader down to Des Moines for his birthday. We bummed around the downtown area and then met Jeff, Yin, and a couple of Baiers for lunch at Mad Meatball. Here are a few pictures from the bumming around phase of the day: We also… Read More »Nader Day
There wasn’t as much LOVE in the world this week as one would have hoped. I’ll just hope that when we get to HATE, it isn’t a more popular option. But it is the world that we live in. But you don’t want to listen to me talk all tommyrot… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 63 – LOVE
Mostly pictures of my niece playing softball in I think, maybe Gilbert. Next week’s walk down memory lane seems to be flower oriented.
Participation rates may have dipped again slightly. The cool night air maybe zapping some motivation. Possibly. It even happened to me a bit this week. I was going to take my photo Saturday night and then fell asleep. Then I was going to do it Sunday night, fell asleep on… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 62 – NIGHT
A long time ago, Joe and I hopped in the Camry and went to Marshalltown for some pizza. On the way back we stopped at the State Center Rose Garden. It was late in the evening, so I didn’t get as many images as I normally do. I will have… Read More »State Center Backlog
On Sunday, after church, I grabbed my camera to walk around the church to grab some STILL LIFE moments for the THE WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE. It seemed like a beautiful day, so I thought I would walk around downtown Boone a little bit before meeting the family at the Chinese… Read More »Chance with Necessity, Randomness with Determinism
There weren’t a whole lot of takers for STILL LIFE. Must have been a depression of some kind out there. But you don’t want to listen to me talk all tommyrot about participation rates, you want to see the submissions. Here they are: Kim Barker Bill Wentworth Angie DeWaard Stephanie… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 61 – STILL LIFE
Last Sunday Shannon asked me to run a Photo Booth for her church’s party. It wasn’t exactly what I imagined, so I way over prepared, but that is cool, because it ended up being easier than anticipated. Here are a few pictures from the day: It was a very impressive… Read More »Harvest Vineyard Photo Booth
It gets dark at like 4:30 now and I was incredibly tired last night. So I only have pictures of hanging up the first mural and not many: I wish I had pictures of the other murals to post, but you’ll have to trust me. They are really coming along.… Read More »Old Salvation Army Building Wall Phase #2 Gamma
The Saturday before Halloween Jay and I got together for our annual tradition of watching horror movies and carving pumpkins. This year Willy joined us. This year Jay carved a clown for my Mom: My pumpkin will remain unpictured. PARTICULARS CAMERA: SONY SLT-A65V ISO: 1600 FOCAL LENGTH: 60mm APERTURE: f/2… Read More »Happy Jayoween
Some of the stalwarts didn’t make it for LANDSCAPE. That’s okay. When one person falls, another person can pick up the torch and carry on. But you don’t want to listen to me talk all tommyrot about torches. You want to see the submissions for LANDSCAPE: Bill Wentworth Cathie Raley… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 60 – LANDSCAPE
Mediacom. That is all I’m going to say for now. So these pictures actually started out with me just wanting to document a little bit of the Mural Project progress, but then a bunch of kids wanted to take pictures. Which made me nervous, but I let Jaxson, Wyatt, and… Read More »Old Salvation Army Building Wall Phase #2 Beta
Before the Iowa State-Kansas State game we had our annual Taco Tailgate. Here are a few images from what was not a well executed event. In the end, the tacos were still delicious. That is all the matters in the end.
