Happy Independence Day – 2013 This would be the second time that I’ve tried to photograph a piece of fruit blowing up with mixed results. It will not be the last. Next week’s Personal Photo Project will probably involve a flower.
Mad with Joy – 2013 It is a well documented fact that I don’t like the iris. If there was ever a flower that needed punched in the face, it is the iris. I don’t know if that is the reason, or what the reason actually would be, but for… Read More »Personal Photo Project #176

Ash It has been a long goal of mine to finally photograph one of Boone’s numerous urban foxes, but every time I’ve encountered one, I’ve been sans camera. My luck finally changed when I encountered one coming out of my Mom’s backyard and I had my camera in my car.… Read More »Personal Photo Project #174
Repurposed After 2 failed years of trying to snag an invite to Love Feast, I finally scored one in 2013. It was a pretty amazing experience (I would tell you more about Love Feast, but you have to ask) and the bonus surprise was the old army radar tower. Funk… Read More »Personal Photo Project #173

Still Laughing – 2013 Once again I guessed wrong on when to make my annual trip to Pella. Not only was next to nothing blooming, the lighting wasn’t ideal. However, I still think I put in some work. More from the Still Laughing – 2013 Series: My Mom and Teresa… Read More »Personal Photo Project #169 Alpha
Observation I have wanted to visit the Cordova Observation Tower ever since I’ve known that it existed. Recently I finally got the chance, but because I wasn’t expecting to go there, I didn’t bring the lens I wanted to use to photograph it. I made do. The rest of the… Read More »Personal Photo Project #168

Loveliness Arises These images come from a youth retreat I helped chaperon. Many people painted tiles that were taken back to the church to be made into a cross.

Vinyl During my constant pursuit of minimalism, I have decided to return these records to their original owner Tim. Just another small part in some of the item ownership reassignment I have been doing lately. But before I parted with them, I needed to photograph them. The remainder of the… Read More »Personal Photo Project #164

Expired I found this thing of interest in my bedroom closet during a recent cleaning and downsizing and possession redistribution attack. Can you figure out what it is? The rest of the Expired Series: This mystery item has since hit the trash.
Robots in Disguise A few of my old childhood toys have survived the ravages of time, barely. This project was to photograph a few of my old Transformers. The remainder of the Robots in Disguise Series: I’m actually finally caught up on my blogs! Probably about time to take a… Read More »Personal Photo Project #161
