The following pictures were in the folder 03-01-08 even though most of them seem to be from July of 2007. The last picture is of my Grandpa Paris’ 1979 Iowa State football season ticket. Some of these pictures were taken at the Boone County Fair, some at McHose Park, some… Read More »03-01-08
As you become aged, you get invited to less and less parties. I think I was invited to 3 toddler birthday parties and 1 anniversary party last year. I think that was it. My entire social calendar for 2017. The anniversary party was for the parents of Sara and Steven… Read More »Happy Anniversary Juncks!
Pages 50-51 in the PHOTO JOURNAL PROJECT are “A record of missed photo opportunities”. I think that the actual intention is to write down missed opportunities, but I translated it to mean times when the only camera I had on me was my phone. Sometimes that resulted in serviceable pictures… Read More »A Photo Journal – Henry Carroll – Pages 50-51
On Monday there was a sun dog as I drove home from the computer mine. I pulled over and snapped a couple of pictures: If you like astronomical anomalies, there is a lunar eclipse coming up in the near future!
The world wasn’t ready for these LOW PERSPECTIVE pictures on Monday. I’m not sure the world is ready for them now. But I can’t hold them back any longer: Most of these pictures were taken in Memphis.

Hopping back into the backlog I found some pictures I took back on May 5. Some pictures of a beautiful toad that lived in my woodpile for a few weeks and some pictures of gross lilacs. I was, of course, being facetious when I called lilacs ugly. Those lilacs can… Read More »Cinco de Mayo
I had some free time on Christmas Eve between church services and feedings to go out to Ledges. I didn’t get as far into Ledges as I wanted because of time constraints and temperature my feet can take restraints, but I did get a few photos that I like: I… Read More »Not Entirely Frozen

Sit tight. This is a long one! Working on the old backlog. These pictures were taken on Christmas Eve last year: Some of these pictures were taken at Ledges State Park. Some on the High Trestle Trail. Some of them at my chuch (Boone First United Methodist Church represent!).
On Monday the world wasn’t ready for these WATER images. Not sure the world is ready for them yet.

As me and my friendly neighborhood robocopy scripts make it through the back log, I’ve come across some images from the day I went down to Winterset after some young hooligans burned down one of the famous (or infamous depending on how you feel about “literature”) covered bridges of Madison… Read More »I Ain’t No Hogback Girl!

I have a considerable backlog of images that I need to edit. Part of the problem is that I edit photos in 2 separate distinct locations and it is often difficult for me to figure out what I have edited in one location, but not the other. I have begun… Read More »Dog Face

I wasn’t sure how participation rates would go for WEATHER. Here in central Iowa, the weather couldn’t have been more boring. Which is amazing for this late in November. Plus I’m sure that the holiday didn’t help much either. That being said, it wasn’t a terrible week for participation. But… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 115 – WEATHER

The pictures from the album called 12-30-07 are more experiments with projection. I might need to get back into that in the near future. It is a good thing to play with when it is -7 out and the sun goes down at 4:05 PM. By adding these pictures to… Read More »12-30-07
