These pictures come from: Backup/Old My Pictures/Labels I once had an idea where I had my friends do a little exercise in self-realization. I asked them to pick a word. One word that they wanted the world to think of when the world saw them. Then I had them write… Read More »The Archives: Edition Twenty-One

More pictures of tulips from my trip to Pella with my Mom. More from the Still Laughing Series tomorrow.
Still Laughing I took a calculated risk this year and went to Pella with my Mom a full week before I did last year. I knew it was a risk because of the relatively cold spring and my risk did not pay off. Very few of their tulips were blooming.… Read More »Personal Photo Project of the Week #69 Alpha
Although I’m sure most people have seen these pictures by now, I have yet to post them here. What was tragically not captured digitally was Jon (who did an awesome job as a photo assistant) turning into a ghost at one point to act as a background. It will definitely… Read More »Alice – 9 Months
I’m known as the tree-hugging environmental whacko in my department of the Computer Mine. I have this title because I don’t hunt, voted for Obama, and want guns to be regulated. Also, I don’t actively hate our environment. I don’t pay much attention to the derision that comes my way… Read More »Turkey Hunt
Must Be Truth This is kind of a simple concept for a photo, therefore there aren’t many variations, but here is what there is: Next week’s Personal Photo Project involves Jill and the pinhole camera.
