Dog Food Stalls

I told you that BLACK AND WHITE photography was my passion.

So…

Buckle up buttercup, this is going to be a long one…

Sometimes I forget that smack in the middle of Ames is the most beautiful campus in the world. I should really visit it more often.

GO STATE!!!

Spray Paint the Vegetables

There were a few other RELIGION pictures I took the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE that didn’t make the cut. Thought I’d share a few of those.

I don’t know if there will be quite so many losers next week.

With the Plastic Eyeballs

Not everybody can be a winner. Like people who get really angry about Participant ribbons. Those people aren’t winners.

These pictures are the people-who-get-mad-about-Participant-ribbons of the FOOD theme for the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE. Submitted with bits of commentary.

What I eat for breakfast about every Saturday. Because I like to eat healthy.

I’ve only been to corporate whore Starbucks once in my life, (Kim Barker made me go.) but this is what how I think about the cup “controversy”.

This picture was to suggest the size of the “Pile” Biscuits and Gravy. You’d be surprised to know how much Photoshop went into this image.

If loving chocolate milk is wrong, then I’m dropping this course and auditing a different one where my opinions are considered right.

I love sweet tea so much I should live in a place with a more moderate climate and have less of a work ethic.

Thanks Taco Bell! I was looking for a sign. Unfortunately she said “In what world?” and now I’m depression eating your disgusting tacos to feel… anything. You win twice.

The Condiment Basket.

I somehow doubt there will be so many losers next week.

And I’m Out to Cut the Junkie

November 12, 2015 Christopher D. Bennett

I actually made two trips out to McHose Park to attempt to create my WATER image for the WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE. Loyal followers of my Instagram account know what happened during my first effort. Therefore, no reason to bring that up again.

I took more than 1 photo while I was out there, so I thought I would share some of the other contenders for WATER, that fell short one way or another.

I’m sure I won’t have as many FOOD losers. Or maybe I’ll have no food losers. I guess I’ll see how that plays out.

Here are a few of the losers that didn’t make the cut for my submission to THE WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE!

To think, I almost gifted that wig (that was a gift from Jen) to Willy. Still might.

I Was A Monkey

It took many shots to get my submission for GREEN in this week’s Weekly Photo Challenge. Thought I would share some of the failures that are cool in their own right.

Jay was the assistant-slash-balloon-smasher for this photo project.

These were some other competitors for NIGHT, but they lost.

Losers!

Fun with Light

A few weeks ago after FNSC, Dawn and Jay assisted me with my RWPE. Here are a few of the other pictures from that photo session:

The poor rope light did not survive the night.

RWPE Outtakes

Here are a handful of pictures that were considered for the last two weeks’ RWPE submissions, but were passed over for various reasons.

First, Painting with Light:

RWPE #22 - PAINTING WITH LIGHT ALTERNATE

Second, Strong:

I should start thinking about COLORFUL pretty soon.

Euphony

I had Nate and Bethany staying with me this weekend. I let Nate choose my submission for RWPE and to be real honest, he actually picked my least favorite picture from the session.

Regardless, I thought I would share a few more pictures from last week’s RWPE featuring a white piano from Alexander’s Recording Kompany. Some of them feature the hands of Derrick.

This would be my favorite picture from this photo shoot.

I believe this to be Derrick’s favorite picture from the photo shoot.

I may have to visit this piano again in the future. Or I might have to visit some other pianos. I might also have to visit some other instruments in the future. Maybe I’ll start with my old trombone.
