Hard to believe that a week from now, I will be on Day 2 of my vacation. Hopefully I will have knocked off one or two of those vacation goals. 1. I want to visit 5 state parks I have never visited. Including Mines of Spain and Preparation Canyon. 2.… Read More »A Slow Glowing Dream
When I went out in the middle of nowhere Boone County to fly the drone around an old country church to take my RELIGION picture for last week’s THE WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE. I took several photos.

Yes, another collection of flower pictures. Tomorrow, I’ll give you a break from flowers. A respite, if you will, but today is more flowers. Sunflowers. Moonflower. Hollyhocks! These pictures were taken in early July. Mostly in my yard.
I do have some good news. The three collapsed shafts at the Computer Mine, well they aren’t back to being fully functional. One is. One is back to functioning part time. No word on when the other one will be repaired. But the Computer Mine is close enough to capacity… Read More »Am I Your Pride and Joy

Way back in May, Monica searched out my photo services. For probably about 20 years (no joke) to enter the Fine Arts Show at the Iowa State Fair. This year, the year the Fair got cancelled due to mismanaged pandemic, she finally entered. However, she needed an image to send… Read More »The Gladdest Thing Under the Sun
I meant to publish a post on this subject a week or so ago, but the derecho put those plans on hold. I’ve meant to be more proactive about writing about when I get new equipment, even equipment that is fairly small or seemingly inconsequential to most people. Hopefully this… Read More »Red Fish, Blue Fish
After over 48 hours, I have power back! I’m still standing. Better than I ever did. Looking like a true survivor. Feeling like a little kid. I’m still standing after all this time. Picking up the pieces of my life, without you on my mind. It has been a couple… Read More »Looking Like A True Survivor
Was torn on whether or not I would continue Sunday posts. I didn’t have one last week, but it wasn’t because of having a lack of photos to share. It was mostly laziness. I almost didn’t post anything today, but I figured I better since I literally accomplished nothing this… Read More »4 Pack
Today’s post consists of pictures I took wandering around my yard on the 5th of July. Probably looking for fireworks shells that may have fallen into my yard from what seemed like, every person in 10 block radius shooting off fireworks the night before. So, more flower pictures: I only… Read More »Always, and Always
I would say that 2020 wasn’t a great year for you standard daisy. I didn’t have any at all this year. However, my Mom had a fair amount of them, so I was able to get a few pictures of them in early June. I have been re-organizing my flower… Read More »Girl in the Blue Skirt – 2020
This is a collection of flower images I took mostly in my Mom’s yard at the end of May. I believe the roses were a Mother’s Day present from Carla.
Another collection of ANIMAL pictures that didn’t quite make the cut for Monday’s WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE reveal. Almost all of these pictures were taken in Jester Park. I don’t make it to Jester Park enough. +++++++ This is your reminder that this week’s THE WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE theme is NATURE:… Read More »Where’s Your Motivation
Today’s collection is a few pictures I took back in May where I was experimenting with water and flowers. Also, some pretty straightforward pictures of columbines. So many more flower pictures out there to curate!
I might have to change the release time for this weekly blog to 1:01 PM CST because there was a recent mine shaft collapse at the Computer Mine and I’ve had to change my work schedule to compensate, thus changing my lunch hour. But we’ll see how it goes for… Read More »WPC – WEEK 254 – ANIMAL

There aren’t many images in the folders 2010-02-15, 2010-02-17, and 2010-02-22 so I combined them all into one post. Most of the pictures are of flowers. But there is a WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE photo in there and a self-portrait. By adding these pictures to the Photography 139 Gallery, I was… Read More »2010-02-15, 2010-02-17, & 2010-02-22
