Looks like the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE went on Spring Break. Perhaps SILHOUETTE is too challenging of a theme. I’m not sure, but participation numbers this week are as low as they’ve ever been. Worries me that the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE might be on the way out. I guess we’ll see… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 78 – SILHOUETTE
Here are the MUSIC photos that didn’t have what it takes to be included in this week’s WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE. Thanks for taking the time to help me mock this pathetic collection of losers!
I promise, there won’t be so many MUSIC pictures that weren’t up to snuff. Thanks for taking the time to help me mock this pathetic collection of losers!
I read on Twitter once about a place claiming to be “the most photographed waterfall in Iowa”. Now I don’t know how they document that claim, especially when what they are referring to is actually a spillway, but I suppose water does fall over it. Either way, this “waterfall” was… Read More »Sprechen Sie Deutche, Baby – Beta
I’ve never revealed the rejects for a Monday reveal picture before. Mostly because the pictures are usually just a quick snapshot of something that fits the theme to be revealed. However, I really like some of the photos that I didn’t use for revealing BLACK & WHITE as this week’s… Read More »Black & White Reveal Rejects
I took some photos of the Stenslands back in May. Probably should show you some of them at this point. Here are some of my favorites. Not sure when this group of people will be together again.

Last night at Youth Group, as we were finishing up our re-writing of the Ten Commandments we had a special guest. Teresa brought her new pooch Mocha for the kids to play with and to illustrate a point about coveting. Here are a few pictures from last night: Most of… Read More »Special Guest
So I tried and failed at a Selfie Project in 2016. I’m trying again in 2017. Last year I took the pictures with Blue Boy. Who you may remember is my Canon point & shoot. This year I’m going to take the pictures with the front facing camera on my… Read More »Selfie Project of 2017

Once again, I did the photos for the Computer Mine Holiday Card. Here are a few of my favorite pictures, but probably not the ones that made the card: Always a pleasure photographing my super-cooperative co-workers!
There weren’t many, but here are the images that didn’t make the cut for LOVE when it was the theme for the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE: Thanks for taking the time to mock this pathetic collection of losers!
I was able to snap a few photos of my church’s (Boone First United Methodist) Community Thanksgiving Dinner. Here are a few of my favorites: I believe they served close to 400 people this year.
A few weeks back I took Nader down to Des Moines for his birthday. We bummed around the downtown area and then met Jeff, Yin, and a couple of Baiers for lunch at Mad Meatball. Here are a few pictures from the bumming around phase of the day: We also… Read More »Nader Day
There wasn’t as much LOVE in the world this week as one would have hoped. I’ll just hope that when we get to HATE, it isn’t a more popular option. But it is the world that we live in. But you don’t want to listen to me talk all tommyrot… Read More »WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE – WEEK 63 – LOVE
Last Sunday Shannon asked me to run a Photo Booth for her church’s party. It wasn’t exactly what I imagined, so I way over prepared, but that is cool, because it ended up being easier than anticipated. Here are a few pictures from the day: It was a very impressive… Read More »Harvest Vineyard Photo Booth
Mediacom. That is all I’m going to say for now. So these pictures actually started out with me just wanting to document a little bit of the Mural Project progress, but then a bunch of kids wanted to take pictures. Which made me nervous, but I let Jaxson, Wyatt, and… Read More »Old Salvation Army Building Wall Phase #2 Beta
Last Wednesday before Youth Group, a hearty clan of painters painted the south wall of the old Salvation Army Building. This phase is just to make it less of an eyesore. Phase 2 will involve painting murals where the boarded up windows are. Well, it is one of the phases.… Read More »Old Salvation Army Building Wall Phase #1
Last night was the annual Hayrack Ride for the Youth Group. Unfortunately, I brought the wrong lens and the wrong flash, but here are a few pictures from the evening.
