The Great What Cheer Road Trip Photo No. 1

May 19, 2017 Christopher D. Bennett

A couple Saturdays back I loaded up into an automobile with Mom, Teresa, and Logan and we headed to the What Cheer Flea Market. This photo has nothing to do with What Cheer, Iowa. On the way back we went through Pella to check out their world famous tulips. Here is a photo from that part of the road trip:

This portion of the road trip was slightly damaged by an overzealous, drunk-with-power, Johnny Law. However, my mood recovered enough from that interaction to enjoy the rest of the trip.

The folder called 08-01-07 is kind of all over the place.

The rest of the TREE images that didn’t have what it takes to make the cut for the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE:

It just a shame that these pictures don’t believe in themselves.

Most of the folder of 07-25-07 was dedicated with playing with an in-camera special effect:

The next folder is kind of all over the place. Insects. Bass players. Flowers. Good stuff.

I decided the time wasn’t right for the world to see the donut photos.

There aren’t many pictures in the folder called 07-24-07:

Next Saturday’s folder looks like it is all about playing with in camera zoom effects.

The folder called 07-16-07 was all over the place. You’ll be happy to know that I got all of my Jason Voorhees jokes about this set of images out of my system before I wrote this here journal entry.

Next “Saturday’s” folder might involve donuts. Although, I will probably just skip the donut folder because it gets weird.

The folder called 07-12-07 starts with some softball and ends with some pop art:

Next Saturday’s folder seems to be squirrel heavy.

June 29, 2016 – Backlog

So I fell quite a bit behind in my blogging lately. I’ve been suffering from a cold and a seasonal disorder known as March Madness. I assure you, it will probably happen again next year, around this same time.

Here are few lily photos I took back in June:

I might make some changes to the lily patch this year. The Asiatic lilies never really took off, so I think I’m going to replace them with day lilies. They seem to really flourish in that part of the yard. To see it, you’ll have to come and visit the Photography 139 Gardens.

I believe all the flowers in the folder 07-05-07 belonged to Jen and Derrick.

Next week’s folder will involve a sword.
