I don’t know that November was a particularly active month for me. It is getting to the hardest part of the year to do this project. The sun isn’t up when I go to work. It is barely up when I get off work. That being said, I think I… Read More »Selfie Project – November 2022
On the 6th day of the Iowa State Fair I spent the morning competing with the award winning barbecue team Baby Got Rack. After we finished the competition and collecting the spoils of victory, they went home and I hung around the Iowa State Fair for a few more hours… Read More »ISF Day 6 Wanderings
After we watched Evie’s Irish dance group perform, we wandered the State Fair for several hours taking in the sights. Here are some pictures from our day: I went to the Iowa State Fair two more days, so lots more Iowa State Fair adventure pictures left to share. +++++++ This… Read More »Iowa State Fair – Day 1 Wanderings
A post on 11/11 that published at 11:11 AM (Central Time)? What does it mean? Absolutely nothing. Numerology is as much nonsense astrology and almost as much nonsense as trickle down economics. But nothing is as much nonsense as trickle down economics. But happy Veterans Day. I don’t have a… Read More »Renaissance Faire – Joust

I’m kicking the decision on Formal Portrait Sunday down the road for at least one more week. I wasn’t necessarily pleased with the overall body of work I put in during September for the Fat Mum Slim Photo A Day Challenge. I tried to make October a better month for… Read More »Fat Mum Slim – October 2022
Looking at my SELFIE PROJECT pictures from the month of October, I’m not sure I had a very active October. Seems like I barely left my house. I’ll try to be more active in November. Here are some of my favorite selfies from THE SELFIE PROJECT in October: October 1… Read More »Selfie Project – October 2022
This year was the first year I made it to the Pufferbilly Days Parade where I wasn’t in it, since I don’t know when. At least a decade. I decided I better photograph it. Here are some of my favorite pictures from the parade: There is generally nothing I find… Read More »Pufferbilly Days Parade – 2022
Another month done in the Fat Mum Slim Photo A Day Challenge. I have to confess that I spent some time on the struggle bus this month. I don’t know if I lost some steam or if I just want feeling some of the themes. Being sick for a few… Read More »Fat Mum Slim – September 2022
I knew September was not going to be as busy as August, but looking at these pictures it is hard not to wonder if I ever left my house. Being sick for about 4 or 5 days didn’t help, but really… I’ll try to do better in October. Here are… Read More »Selfie Project – September 2022
Last Saturday before the Iowa State-Baylor football game we rekindled the old tradition known as Taco Tailgate. It was in the new lot (D1), but it was still as great as ever. Here are some Taco Tailgate pictures: We don’t have the most elaborate setup, but we get to tailgate… Read More »Taco Tailgate – 2022
Last Saturday was the first Iowa State football game of the season. Signifying the beginning of fall and the end of summer. Iowa State bested their FCS opponent 42-10. But I didn’t actually take any pictures of the game. I’m a littlestitious when it comes to taking a camera into… Read More »Iowa State 42 SEMO 10
Happy Labor Day! A day to pay tribute to the contributions and achievements of American works and the millionaires and billionaires that exploit them. COLORFUL could prove to be a very popular theme. Despite it being a holiday today, I have a good feeling about the participation rates for COLORFUL.… Read More »WPC – WEEK 364 – COLORFUL
A quick heads up. If you were thinking of going to or entering an animal into the Pufferbilly Days Dog and Exotic Animal Show, because of the extreme heat of today it was postponed. It is now tomorrow at noon at the park on 9th and Story. +++++++ I have… Read More »Fat Mum Slim – July 2022
This is a reminder that tomorrow there is a dog and exotic animal pet show for Pufferbilly Days. A person could also enter a cat, but people don’t, cause… cat. I mean, it explains itself. However, I give this reminder with the caveat that it is possible that the Dog… Read More »Selfie Project – July 2022
Tomorrow is the Final Four. Thought it would be a good time to check-in on the Roundball Oracles. With 3 games left to go in the NCAA tournament this is the Top 3: 1. Becky Parmelee – 231 Points 2. Carla Stensland – 229 Points 3. Angie DeWaard – 224… Read More »Selfie Project – March 2022
Today is a big day for Iowa State athletics. Iowa State is one of only two schools that have both their Men’s and Women’s basketball team still alive in the NCAA tournament. For the Men, this is pretty shocking since they only won two games last year. This was the… Read More »Kossuth and Winnebago County Auxiliary Images Vol. 2

For a somewhat abstract concept, quite a few people have found HARMONY in their lives somewhere. In fact, it was a record breaking week!

The pictures in the folders 2011-04-12 & 2011-04-16 are of two varieties. One set will no doubt be very confusing to you. 98% (probably higher) will think that those picture are rubbish. They are more pinhole camera pictures. It has been months since I published pinhole camera pictures. What sets… Read More »2011-04-12 & 2011-04-16
