Soul Expansion – 2013

This week’s Personal Photo Project was to photograph my favorite flower (one of them), the moonflower.

Did you know that the moonflower can be used as a hallucinogenic? That doesn’t explain why I was late delivering today’s blog, but it might explain why Naima acts the way she does some of the time.

The remainder of the Soul Expansion – 2013 Series:

For the record I haven’t fact-checked the hallucinogenic fact that I just threw at you. My old vet told me it was so, and I believe him.

Next week’s Personal Photo Project will involve Nashville.

Garden of the Gods

The first order of business is to welcome Micky Augustin aboard as the latest person to show class, taste, and sophistication by signing up for a email subscription to the online journal of Photography 139.

Everybody say: “Hi Micky!”

These images were taken in a national forest in Illinois in an area known as the Garden of the Gods.

Yea, I fell down. But I protected the camera and finished the trail. A lesser man would have been foiled.

More from the Garden of the Gods Series tomorrow.

Browse-A-Bout

This week’s Personal Photo Project was to photograph the statue store where most of my immense collection of frog statues come from… the Browse-A-Bout in Kentucky.

I finally saw this place in person on Teresa, Logan, and I’s trip to Kentucky to visit Ernie.

Next week’s Personal Photo Project will involve flowers again. Coneflowers or hollyhocks or lilies or sunflowers…

Croutons

This picture of an abandoned sign on the side of I-80 concludes the pictures from Shannon and I’s road trip. Originally there was planned to be a set of images from the Corning Opera House, but I don’t like them at all. I usually don’t run from my failures, but this time I am, going to run, from my failure, as fast and far as I can.

The remainder of the Croutons Series:

Next week’s Personal Photo Project of the Week will involve flowers. Perhaps flowers from the State Fair. No promises.
