Self-Portrait Project Reboot – Take 2 – The Sequel
So I’ve dropped the ball on this self-portrait project again. This time I don’t have a valid excuse, but this week I am being more diligent.

Self-Portrait Project: Week 2
I continued this project for one full week, until January 15th. On that night, my Mom’s health took a very drastic change for the worse. Enough you know at least some of the details of where we were and where we are now, that I won’t go into them here.… Read More »Self-Portrait Project: Week 2

Iowa Gothic
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

Personal Photo Project of the Week #58
Pinhole Experiment Here are some of the more intriguing images to come off the first roll of film from the pinhole camera. For some reason I felt compelled to buy some filters for the pinhole camera.

Personal Photo Project of the Week No. 8
Beast Obviously this Personal Photo Project was completed well before I trimmed down and became a dirty naked-face. I kind of miss the guy in this picture. Jay actually took the original image.

Punch Myself in the Face
I had decided to shave all the way down to a dirty naked face last weekend. It had been over 3 years since my chin had tasted air and felt the rays of sunlight. My chin was dreadfully dry and desperately in the need of some moisturizing. Lots and lots… Read More »Punch Myself in the Face

Coltrane’s 1st Wife’s Middle Name
Rarely when I publish pictures do I explain the thought process, the technical information or the inspiration. If somebody is confused by a picture or intrigued by a picture I want them to come to their own conclusions. I feel by telling people too much about a picture, it cheapens… Read More »Coltrane’s 1st Wife’s Middle Name
The Outer Limits
There is nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are controlling transmission. If we wish to make it louder, we will bring up the volume. If we wish to make it softer, we will tune it to a whisper. We can reduce the… Read More »The Outer Limits
