Nature’s Amen – 2012 As Boone’s premiere hollyhock gardener I felt that I better take more photos of my hollyhocks this year than last year. The week’s Personal Photo Project reflects that commitment. More from the Nature’s Amen – 2012 Series: More hollyhocks tomorrow!
Happy Things – 2012 This week’s project was to photograph coneflowers. Coneflowers are probably a top 5 flower for me. Admittedly, they aren’t much to look at, but I find the transformation the flower makes over its total lifespan to be fascinating. The rest of the Happy Things – 2012… Read More »Personal Photo Project of the Week #128

More pictures from the The Girl in the Blue Skirt Alpha – 2012 Series: Not entirely sure what next week’s Personal Photo Project of the Week will involve. It all depends on what I can get edited. Best guess is that it will involve aliums.

The New Old (Redux) A few months ago I took some pictures of abandoned signs with the retro setting on my camera.

I hung out with more creatures than just Lancelot and Elaine on my loop. Here is a look at the rest of the Tennyson Series: This insane graffiti that looks just like Bill was on the side of a generator near the lake. It still blows my mind! Would you… Read More »Personal Photo Project of the Week #123 Beta

Conundrum This week’s Personal Photo Project kind of borders on the edge of being a failure. I wanted to photograph this flower because I found it to be interesting looking. Unforutnately, the time I took these pictures is the only time I saw this flower blooming. I checked on it… Read More »Personal Photo Project of the Week #120
Tree Library This week’s project was to take a few photos at the Iowa Arboretum as I was scouting it for a wedding that I was going to be photographing in a couple of weeks. Unfortunately, I ended up having very little time out there to photograph as by the… Read More »Personal Photo Project of the Week #119
Remnants I spotted this dilapidated old building on the way to the Rusty Duck. I knew on the way home that I would have to stop and photograph it. This is both the joy and danger of riding in a car with me. The rest of the Remnants Series: If… Read More »Personal Photo Project of the Week #118
The rest of the pictures from my annual trip to the Northwest Greenhouse with my Mom. Also known as the Plant Happiness – 2012 Series. I made a deal with Vivian while I was there to give her one of these pictures for their store. I guess I need to… Read More »Personal Photo Project Week #117 Beta

The Graduate These picture kind of put some closure on Logan’s Senior Pictures for me. I just told Logan to do whatever he wanted. This is what he did: Logan is looking at a career as a chiropractor, but if he decides to make an honest living instead, their might… Read More »Personal Photo Project of the Week #115
Happy Easter – 2012 I wanted my Easter picture to be a Peep burning in a microwave. Unfortunately, I waited so long to take this picture that the Peep I procured off of Teresa had melted in my car, so you probably can’t tell what it is. That is just… Read More »Personal Photo Project of the Week #114
John 19:30 It is fairly well documented that I don’t enjoy this aspect of my church’s Good Friday service, but I do know a good photo opportunity when I see it!
