The most recent subject of THE POSTCARD RECREATION PROJECT is the Ericson Public Library. There are actually quite a few old timey postcards out there for Boone’s library. I guess that isn’t much of a surprise, because it is a beautiful building. What did surprise me that there isn’t that… Read More »Postcard Recreation Project – Ericson Public Library
Today’s collection of recreated postcards are from downtown Boone area. When I recreated one of them, I did learn something about Boone history that I didn’t know. A fascinating, dry and itchy piece of Boone history. The first picture is in downtown Boone, looking east down 8th Street from where… Read More »Postcard Recreation Project – Fitch’s Dandruff
I would understand if people were somewhat disappointed with these POSTCARD RECREATION PROJECT images. Because, spoiler, the building in these postcards that I recreated doesn’t exist any longer. It was demolished a long time ago. This won’t be the last time this happens. I mean, just wait until we get… Read More »Postcard Recreation Project – Boone Biblical College
Several years ago Jen suggested that for a photo project, I “recreate” old postcards. I loved the idea and I did it for exactly one postcard. Then did absolutely nothing else. For years. While I was on my vacation, I decided to start that project up again. I think I… Read More »Postcard Recreation Project Reboot
A few months back Jen sent me a text message out of the blue suggesting that I should try to recreate (update) old postcards. It seems like a perfect fit for me, since I might be the last person on the world who really loves postcards and even occasionally sends… Read More »The Postcard Recreation Project – Teddy Roosevelt
I started this Boone County Postcard Project last year and then kind of abandoned it. I’ll need to get on it again now that the weather is getting nicer again. These photos were taken for the project on June 30th. This project will ultimately culminate in a new Photography 139… Read More »Boone County Postcard Project Vol. 2
I’m starting to work on my endgame for Postcard Series #2. I’d like to do this once a week where I get out and shoot some part of Boone County for the use in the endgame. Most recently I spent a little bit of time in Ledges. These are the… Read More »Series #2 Alpha
I’ve been playing with the idea of finally coming out with Series #2 of the Photography 139 Postcard Line lately. Even though, I still have plenty of Series #1 in stock. Although the daisy postcard is nearly sold out. Another bugaboo is that the retail outlet where I was selling… Read More »Proof of Concept
This week’s Personal Photo Project is a blatant attempt at commerce. Good old fashioned in-your-face-capitalism. I’ve been talking to Barb Henning of Everlastings about selling high quality Photography 139 products in her store for several years now, but I have always been unable to pull the trigger. However, I’ve turned… Read More »Personal Photo Project of the Week #144
You will most likely appreciate this a little bit more if you actually know Nader, because this is Classic Nader. I haven’t traveled farther than Des Moines from my front door this entire year. Yes, I know that is exceedingly pathetic and that error will be corrected in roughly 9… Read More »Greetings from London
