Macrolepidoptera
Hitting up that 2018 backlog for a few butterfly pictures I took last September at my Mom’s house. I believe I’m down to 10 folders in the 2018 backlog. I might just get caught up at some point in the not too distant future!

Choked
On Monday night, I choked when I had a chance to show a person that has a real good chance to be the next President of the United States a picture of Naima. We both have irresistible golden retrievers and we had a moment there. However, Naima is supposed to… Read More »Choked

Digital Noise
More from the 2018 backlog. This collection of pictures was taken at Dickcissel late in the day and are kind of lousy with digital noise, but some of them aren’t too bad. Just gotta keep plugging away.
In Earth and Manure
Going back to the 2018 backlog again. After this post, all of the July pictures have been edited and those that I have deemed worthy have been posted. I probably have about 15 folders of images to go through and figure out to get the 2018 backlog officially hammered out.… Read More »In Earth and Manure

Subtly Dissolves
Hitting up the 2018 backlog again. This is a collection of photos I took while I was playing with the panorama setting on the trusty old 77ii. Most of them were taken out a Dickcissel Park. This was a trip with Naima that involved her running off some pheasants. I… Read More »Subtly Dissolves
WPC – WEEK 212 – FRAMED
FRAMED was a popular enough theme that it crawled into double digit submission territory for the second straight week. I know that conceptually it is one of the harder themes, but we did it people! But you didn’t come here to listen to me talk all tommyrot about participation rates,… Read More »WPC – WEEK 212 – FRAMED

Back to the 2018 backlog. This is a collection of pictures I took on a day I went down to Ledges to photograph some flooding. Ledges floods so frequently these days that I rarely even bother to go photograph it. In fact, I didn’t check out Ledges flooding at all… Read More »By Ignorant Rulers

Just Put Down “Cause Unknown”
I would be remiss if I didn’t start by pointing out today is the anniversary of 9/11. It has been 18 years since terrorists hijacked 4 airplanes and murdered over 3,000 people in senseless acts of violence. The United States went to war shortly thereafter, and we have been at… Read More »Just Put Down “Cause Unknown”

Hitting up the backlog with another collection of pictures from Pufferbilly Days last year. These pictures are from when Bethany, Nora, and I visited the petting zoo. I believe that to be all of my 2018 Pufferbilly Days pictures backlog.
Selfie Project – July
Usually I don’t like to get this late into a month before I publish my favorite photos from the previous months SELFIE PROJECT, but I guess I’ve been busy and I’ve really been trying to be diligent with hitting up that 2018 backlog. I don’t know that I did anything… Read More »Selfie Project – July
