Video Experimentation

I experimented by making a small video based on the flower picture below. It has issues, but it is just an experiment. Of course if you subscribe to this blog via email or RSS feed, you will have to go to the website to see the video.

Functioning Feature

Now that my website is on a new server and my galleries exist again, I’m excited to announce that there is a new feature you can use in the galleries. That new feature is eCards. If you were to navigate yourself one of these two ways: GALLERY DELETED or GALLERY… Read More »Functioning Feature

Kalona (Part 1)

Some pictures from the trip to Kalona. The beginning of the trip was a little bit sad. It turns out that one of my favorite restaurants, The Kalona Cupboard, has went out of business. We tried out The Parlor Cafe, but it was not anywhere near as good as The… Read More »Kalona (Part 1)

Volt-face

Last Sunday I had some unexpected free time when I got fired from a friend’s photo project. That is right I got: A career change opportunity Discharged The Pink Slip Dehired Canned Downsized Let Go Outsourced Made Redundant Skill-mix Adjustment Released Walking Papers Shown the Door The Ax Terminated Sacked… Read More »Volt-face

Selected Pictures

This year I took a different route selecting pictures for the Photo Contest. I put together 20 pictures and then had certain people select and name 1 picture from that list. I then entered those pictures. I liked the way this process worked out. I will do it again in… Read More »Selected Pictures

Bereft

More pictures that weren’t selected. This is a picture of June and Dean’s barn. This is a picture of the Basilica in Dyersville. This picture was actually originally selected for entry, but I decided that I didn’t really like the way it looked when it was printed, so it was… Read More »Bereft

Spurned

Two more pictures that were not selected. It took me some time to actually find one of these old merry-go-rounds. I searched high and low and only found one in Boone. Perhaps there is another one somewhere, but the only one I could find was at the Trinity playground. The… Read More »Spurned

Miller Farm

June and Dean are going to be moving from their farm in the near future. I went out there with Jim on Saturday to take a few pictures of the farm before they move. I’ll have to head out there again in couple of weeks and take some more pictures.

Albia, Iowa

I drove to Albia on Sunday to watch Elainie play softball in the Little League State Tournament. I was honestly expecting to only watch one game because they were playing Grand View. I can never recall a Boone team beating a Grand View team. But it happened. Boone beat Grand… Read More »Albia, Iowa

Night Visions

I assume everybody else does the same thing when they can not sleep at night. There are times when I look at flowers that I am reminded of the following quote: God loved the flowers and invented soil. Man loved the flowers and invented vases. -Variation of a saying by… Read More »Night Visions

Random Flower Day

It feels like a good day to post random pictures of flowers. Here is a bonus image of another one of my attempts to tribute Impressionism. Specifically its emphasis on light in its changing qualities. I like it any way.

Des Moines Art

I went down to the Des Moines Art Center for the first time since maybe the 6th grade on Saturday. I met Stephanie and her friend Katie down there. I was impressed with the collection that Des Moines has and was doubly impressed that it was free. We had about… Read More »Des Moines Art
