Jesse and I went on a road trip a ways back. Here are some images from that trip, provided with the occasional commentary. I love the fact that “Loafing” was prohibited. I had to have this picture taken as 1 of my favorite scenes from one of my favorite movies… Read More »Iowa Gothic
These pictures are from a vacation we took up near the Nisswa area. These pictures come from: Backup/Old My Pictures/Minnesota Vacation Next week’s folder is: Backup/Old My Pictures/New Folder
Heavenly Peace Most people have already seen this picture that I took to send as a Christmas e-card. (Just one of the many awesome features of the Photography 139 Galleries!) I borrowed a hymnal and candle after the early evening Candlelight Service on Christmas Eve and took this picture and… Read More »Personal Photo Project of the Week #52

Bennett Dawn Krause Mike Vest Shannon Bardole So it has come down to one final theme. Then this project has officially… Read More »RWPE #51 – Peace of Mind
Ain’t Distributed Right Nader made this selection over Mongolian one night before we saw The Expendables. This picture had my favorite judge’s comment on it. “Nice try.” Hilarious! Nader also consider this picture over a bowl of noodles. 5 of 6 selectors have been selected for next year’s Pufferbilly Days… Read More »Nader Parsaei
Jay had a million questions about the process before he picked (which was a little strange since he had picked in the past), but once he was on the clock he said it was a tough decision because there were “so many good pictures”. But he arrived at his decision… Read More »Jay Janson
Ain’t Distributed Right The Ain’t Distributed Right photos were taken between Boone and Ames. I don’t know another subject that cooperates with me less than lightning. Turtles might be close, but lightning always seems to disappear when I get ready to photograph it.
I wasnt able to get out and about to see much of the flooding of Ames yesterday, but here are a few pictures from the flooding near the Computer Mine: Maybe next flood I will have a chance to prowl around and take more photos. Hopefully that flood isn’t in… Read More »Contaminationville
Here is a collection of flower pictures that didn’t quite fit into earlier or future postings.
I am thinking of adding a weekly segment to this journal where lesser gardeners can ask me questions about how I became such a super badass gardener and I would sprinkle my nuggets of wisdom on them. If you have any questions, leave them in the Comments section of this… Read More »The Incidental Gardener Files
Here are a handful of pictures that were considered for the last two weeks’ RWPE submissions, but were passed over for various reasons. First, Painting with Light: Second, Strong: I should start thinking about COLORFUL pretty soon.

When I originally was planning my vacation I had set aside this day to make a road trip. I didn’t know where I wanted to go for sure, but I knew that a trip to Wilton and their old timey ice cream parlor was definitely on the list. I had… Read More »Vacation Day 7 – Couch Time
I don’t recall if I woke up in my own bed or on my own couch on Thursday morning, but I definitely slept good and solid after getting home close to midnight the previous night. I think that I was able to fall asleep rather quickly after the 3.5 hour… Read More »Vacation Day 6 – Campus
This picture was taken on the exact same day as the daisy picture. It currently is untitled.
Here are a few pictures from another mini-adventure. I will not answer questions about this trip, (it was a spiritual quest and that is all you need to know) but I will let leak the following tidbits: Faust really hates nature. Perhaps even more than Bill fears nature. I was… Read More »Vacation Stuff – Two
I spent a good portion of Sunday at Ledges. Unfortunately, the place was packed, but I was able to take some photos.
A lifetime ago I knew this girl that was entering a wet t-shirt contest. She was explaining to Jesse, Jay and I her strategy for winning this contest. We tried our best to explain to her that there really is only one strategy for winning a wet t-shirt contest. That… Read More »Skin to Win
Day 6 in Arizona was more work. At the conclusion of the work day, we were bused out into the “middle of the desert” for a “western roundup” party. If you could get away from the cheeseball band that was lip syncing and playing to backing tracks, it was a… Read More »Arizona Day 6
Jesse and I woke up in Coolidge, Arizona and made our way to a local diner for breakfast. This place was certainly McCain Country. We sat at the breakfast counter and listened to a couple locals complain about the governor for “being nice” to Obama. They agreed that the governor… Read More »Arizona Day 4
