When I present a bee picture, I always ask for a moment of silence to remember the millions that lost their lives in Houston during that terrible bee attack in the 1970s. Please observe that moment of silence now. So then this lady from Jersey says, “You know why New… Read More »I Always Credit My Enemy
Another flower from the Iowa State Fair Discovery Garden. This time from my trip with the old Campus crew. After taking this picture, I sat down at a picnic table with Steph and Kellie eating some kind of fried potato concoction, when a lady from New Jersey sat down with… Read More »State Fair Flower
There is a fairly large collection of rejected photos for this week’s WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE. So we better not dawdle. Thanks for taking the time to join me in mocking this pathetic collection of losers.
Wasn’t sure what I would post today. Then Russell reminded me that it was World Photo Day.

Yesterday, Baby Got Rack competed at the State Fair barbecue contest. After we got the pork and the chicken on the smoker, we had a couple of hours to kill. We smoke the chicken and pork for close to two hours and then we allow the meat to rest another… Read More »Discoverbee

There wasn’t much in the 04-29-07 folder. A couple photos of one of my Mom’s tulips. The next folder contains plenty of grainy photos of Alexis and swans.
I’m starting to work on my endgame for Postcard Series #2. I’d like to do this once a week where I get out and shoot some part of Boone County for the use in the endgame. Most recently I spent a little bit of time in Ledges. These are the… Read More »Series #2 Alpha
A mixture of wildlife and tulips in the folder 04-28-07: The folder for next Saturday doesn’t have much in it. Maybe a couple of tulip photos. We’ll see.
Here are a collection of pathetic losers that didn’t make the snuff for my submission for the FLOWER theme of THE WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE: I’m glad we had this time together to bully and mock these photos.

You might not know this about me, but I enjoy spending time in ditches looking for something to photograph. I recently found this flower in a ditch. It is actually hard for me to drive in the country this time of year because the ditches are so beautiful with green… Read More »Ditches Please!
Here are a few daisies from the Iowa Arboretum. I was surprised how spry their daisies still are considering that my daisies went the way of the dodo bird almost a month ago.

A few weeks back, while I was waiting for some people get ready for a photo shoot, I took a couple pictures of my Grandma’s rose bush. This rose bush is one of my favorite plants. A top 5 plant I tell ya! PARTICULARS CAMERA: SONY SLT-A65V ISO: 100 FOCAL… Read More »Time Killer
I used the late parts of my vacation to try to look at my hometown through the eyes of a tourist. Let’s face it, Boone actually has some really cool unique aspects to it that most people take for granted. One of those things that people take for granted is… Read More »Not from France
A picture of Karma, some flower pictures, and a Thomas Merton quote is what I found in the folder named 04-18-07. Looks like deer photos will be the feature in the next walk down my memory lane.
I have to say that my lilies have been on fleek this year. I just hope I don’t break my arm patting myself on the back. There are a literal ton of lily pictures in the hopper. I hope you like such things. PARTICULARS CAMERA: SONY SLT-A65V ISO: 100 FOCAL… Read More »Hometeam
I don’t have the best hollyhock patch this year, but the ones I do have, the area insects find to be quite tasty. Leaving designs that I like to photograph. Obviously this image might have been touched by Photoshop, but we don’t need to get into all that jazz. PARTICULARS… Read More »Mmmmmm… Delicious!
