I don’t know that November was a particularly active month for me. It is getting to the hardest part of the year to do this project. The sun isn’t up when I go to work. It is barely up when I get off work. That being said, I think I… Read More »Selfie Project – November 2022

Another month done in the Fat Mum Slim Photo A Day Challenge. I have to confess that I spent some time on the struggle bus this month. I don’t know if I lost some steam or if I just want feeling some of the themes. Being sick for a few… Read More »Fat Mum Slim – September 2022
I knew September was not going to be as busy as August, but looking at these pictures it is hard not to wonder if I ever left my house. Being sick for about 4 or 5 days didn’t help, but really… I’ll try to do better in October. Here are… Read More »Selfie Project – September 2022
This is the second and final collection of auxiliary images I took while harvesting the town signs of Dickinson and Emmet County. A few are taken in Humboldt County and the final picture is taken in Greene County. Some of the trips to harvest town signs are very long and… Read More »Dickinson and Emmet Aux – Vol. 2
Last Saturday was the first Iowa State football game of the season. Signifying the beginning of fall and the end of summer. Iowa State bested their FCS opponent 42-10. But I didn’t actually take any pictures of the game. I’m a littlestitious when it comes to taking a camera into… Read More »Iowa State 42 SEMO 10
A quick heads up. If you were thinking of going to or entering an animal into the Pufferbilly Days Dog and Exotic Animal Show, because of the extreme heat of today it was postponed. It is now tomorrow at noon at the park on 9th and Story. +++++++ I have… Read More »Fat Mum Slim – July 2022
This is a reminder that tomorrow there is a dog and exotic animal pet show for Pufferbilly Days. A person could also enter a cat, but people don’t, cause… cat. I mean, it explains itself. However, I give this reminder with the caveat that it is possible that the Dog… Read More »Selfie Project – July 2022
It has been 5,795 days since August 9, 2006. 5,795 days since I first took keyboard in hand and started the blog portion of the Photography 139 website. The portion I pompously named “An Artist’s Notebook”. The part I started with the words: So here is the first journal entry.… Read More »Four Thousand Five Hundred
Time for another Formal Portrait Sunday. This Sunday we are checking back in with Kyle’s Summer Photo Shoot. There aren’t as many pictures in this collection because these are more “action” shots that were taken after the sun was almost down. However, I think there are some good shots in… Read More »Kyle – Volume 5
It is time once again to share some of my favorite pictures from Jayton’s Senior Picture Photo Shoot. These were taken at Goeppinger Field. Next Formal Portrait Sunday will feature Kyle again.
As I indicated last Sunday, Sundays are going to be about formal portraits I took in 2021 for the foreseeable future. For a little bit anyways. Today I’m going to share the first collection of images from a photo shoot I had with Jayton Poole. Jayton is a senior at… Read More »Jayton – Volume 1
The pictures in the folders 2011-04-12 & 2011-04-16 are of two varieties. One set will no doubt be very confusing to you. 98% (probably higher) will think that those picture are rubbish. They are more pinhole camera pictures. It has been months since I published pinhole camera pictures. What sets… Read More »2011-04-12 & 2011-04-16
Last Friday night the Boone Toreadors travelled to Indianola for their final game of the season. Andy asked me to attend the game to take some pictures of the final game of Kyle’s career. We supped and then I went to the game through the first half and then called… Read More »Boone at Indianola
Last Friday Andy asked me to come to the Boone football game to get a few pictures of Senior Night. Andy’s son Kyle is the QB on the team. Fellow email subscriber Aaron’s son Jayton is a WR on the team. At one point in the game Kyle threw a… Read More »Boone 58 Perry 0
Here are some pictures from yesterday: It was a disappointing effort by the Iowa State offense, but if they can right the ship, all their season goals are still on the table.
On Tuesday when I opened up the Twitters looking for any new Iowa State or Big 12 expansion news, I saw this post from Nick Bassett that made me smile so big: For those of you that don’t follow sports, College GameDay is a pregame show on ESPN on Saturday… Read More »Mississippi Cotton Picking Delta Town
This Saturday from 8-12 we are going to have the final sale at my Mom’s house. There is still lots of glassware and collectibles for sale. A few tools. Many decorations. Maybe some furniture. Some other stuff will be added this week as well I’m sure. The address is 111… Read More »Boone at Nevada
I did take my camera in for Iowa State’s embarrassing, pathetic performance/victory against UNI yesterday. There is a limit of 6 inches on the length of lenses that you are allowed to bring in, so the lens I brought in was definitely a wide angle lens, sorta. You don’t want… Read More »#7 Iowa State Cyclones 16 Northern Iowa Panthers 10
On the last day of the Iowa State Fair, Jesse and I went down there and spent several hours down there before picking up my pictures from the Iowa State Fair Photography Salon. I barely made it in to the Cultural Center to get my photos because they started closing… Read More »Last Day of the Fair
