Yes Virginia, there was a Photography 139 Calendar this year. However, I didn’t sell them this year. I just made a small run and gave them out to a very few small group of select people. Here are the pictures from the 2019 Photography 139 Calendar: The front cover is… Read More »2019 Photography 139 Calendar
Post #3252 – 2018 Year in Review
Happy New Year to people who celebrate such things. I like to look at some meaningless statistics every 250 posts and I also look at fairly meaningless year end statistics. Just so happens that I get to combine them today!! Here is both a year in review and a celebration… Read More »Post #3252 – 2018 Year in Review
Drops
A few months back I went out into my backyard during a rainstorm and took a few photos of some raindrops. Here are those photos: You can’t beat fun in the rain!
WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 167 – ? PLACE
I don’t know if it was the holiday or just a really tough theme, but hardly anybody was inspired by last week’s theme, ? PLACE. But you didn’t come here to listen to me talk all tommyrot about participation rates, you came to see the submissions: Becky Parmelee Christopher D.… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 167 – ?

Naima Underwater Test
Naima likes to walk in water. Naima doesn’t swim, unless forced. She doesn’t enjoy it. But she loves tromping around in water. I decided to try to grab a picture of her tromping around in water, from underwater. It didn’t work out that well because the place we go so… Read More »Naima Underwater Test
WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 165 – LANDSCAPE
Before we get too involved in the week’s WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE, I want to take a little bit of time to toot my own horn. Today at 9:36 AM, I made the final payment on the Camry. Today, that baby is mine! I don’t have the pink slip in my… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 165 – LANDSCAPE
Little White Lye Soap and Boone County Sea Dogs
At this point on our stroll down memory lane, rather than go through full folders, I’m taking a a bit out of a folder at a time, because some of these folders have hundreds and hundreds of images. These images are from a “tubing” trip down the Des Moines River… Read More »Little White Lye Soap and Boone County Sea Dogs
A PHOTO JOURNAL – HENRY CARROLL – PAGE 40
Back at the end of August I had a free Saturday afternoon, so I decided to head out to Big Creek and tackle Page 40 of THE PHOTO JOURNAL PROJECT: Create a playlist. Now listen to it while out taking pictures. It was hard for me to determine the exact… Read More »A PHOTO JOURNAL – HENRY CARROLL – PAGE 40
WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 164 – WILD ANIMAL
WILD ANIMAL is a tough theme for this time of year. Not really, but it could be. At least it ended up being a tough theme as there were less than a handful of submissions. But you didn’t come here to listen to me talk all tommyrot about participation. You… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 164 – WILD ANIMAL

The Great Eclipse Failure of ’17 – Tres
This is the final collection of eclipse photos from my trip to Missouri to watch the eclipse with Jesse, Sarah, Tim, Mike, and Adam. That is the end of the eclipse pictures until the next eclipse. About time to start making plans for it now!
WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 157 – PERSPECTIVE
Here we are. Starting a new 52 weeks of themes. I like to think back at all we’ve accomplished. Really puts things in PERSPECTIVE.

You came to see the submissions: Carla Stensland Tamara Peterson Carla… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 157 – PERSPECTIVE
The Great Eclipse Failure of ’17 – Dos
Here are more pictures from our mostly failed trip to Saint Joseph, Missouri to see the Solar Eclipse back in 2017. These pictures aren’t exactly in chronological order because I used 2 camera on this day and I didn’t have the foresight to synchronize their clocks. There is one more… Read More »The Great Eclipse Failure of ’17 – Dos

The Great Eclipse Failure of ’17! – Uno
You might recall that back in August of 2017 there was a solar eclipse in the United States for the first time in decades. Or at least a really long time. It cut a swath through Iowa, but in Iowa you couldn’t see the totality. It was only something like… Read More »The Great Eclipse Failure of ’17! – Uno
07-02-08
There isn’t much to the folder called 07-02-08. A few pictures from a small road trip that I took with Becky. Then some flower pictures. No reason to dilly dally. Let’s get to it: I remember being so disappointed when I saw the design of the new “High Bridge”. 10… Read More »07-02-08
Boneyard Hollow
Back in July (of 2017) I made a quick little road trip up to Dolliver Memorial State Park. I did a little hiking around the Boneyard Hollow part of the park. I wouldn’t say Dolliver is one of my favorite parks in Iowa, but it has some interesting facets. Check… Read More »Boneyard Hollow
The Howards: 2016 – Chapter 1
By the time this gets published, I’ll probably be making the trudge up Expo Hill towards the Cultural Building to pick up my photos from the Iowa State Fair Photography Salon. If you didn’t get a chance to duck into the Cultural Building to check out my photos, that is… Read More »The Howards: 2016 – Chapter 1
