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
The pictures in the folder 2010-11-08 are from the last time that Iowa State and Nebraska played each other in football. Nebraska, tired of being mediocre in the Big 12 and being pushed around by Texas off the field, left for the Big Ten. Their fans thought for sure that… Read More »2010-11-08
The majority of the pictures in the folder 2010-11-01 are from when the Iowa State Cyclones bested the Kansas Jayhawks on the gridiron. I believe that was like 7 Kansas football coaches ago. Back then there coach was a guy who used to coach at Buffalo. Their current coach is… Read More »2010-11-01
There were large collections of images in the folders 2010-09-20, 2010-09-21, or 2010-09-27 so I combined them into one post. These include pictures of an Iowa State-Kansas State football game, pictures taken shortly after Evie was born, and pictures of Elainie playing football. By adding these pictures to the Photography… Read More »2010-09-20, 2010-09-21, and 2010-09-27
August 9, 2006. That was the date where I first took keyboard in hand and began typing out the blog that I entitled “An Artist’s Notebook”. I entitled that first post “First Journal Entry”. The categories for that first post were “Blogging”, “Contests”, “Jay”, and “Sara”. This is the first… Read More »Post #4,000
The grand majority of pictures from the folder 2010-04-19 are from the Iowa State’s Spring Game in 2010. There is also one picture that was used for Week 15 of Year 1 of THE WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE. The theme was LONG EXPOSURE. Looking through these pictures really made me miss… Read More »2010-04-19
Last Friday Andy wanted me to come to the Boone High football game and take a few photos. I wasn’t really ready to be in a crowd that large yet. Then, he suggested I bring the drone out and take a couple of photos. Now strictly speaking, that isn’t 100%… Read More »Rodan139: Goeppinger Field
The pictures in the folder 2009-11-14 are from the last home Iowa State football game from 2009. It was a victory over Colorado that made the Cyclones bowl eligible. It was shocking that Iowa State had a successful season that year because it was Paul Rhoads’ first season and the… Read More »2009-11-14
The pictures in the folder called 2009-11-09 are from the Iowa State-Oklahoma State football game and pictures of Becky with her rabbit and pooch. I can’t remember who won the Iowa State-Oklahoma State game, but everybody wins when you get a bunny together with a great dane. Next Saturday’s walk… Read More »2009-11-09
This is the last collection of random pictures from 2019. Everything else that is left in the 2019 backlog belongs to a collection of pictures. Such as family portraits or senior pictures or a wedding. Enjoy: I can almost see the light at the end of the 2019 backlog. But… Read More »Stochastic
30 days working from home in the book. Although for the first time, I had to go into the mine to do something that couldn’t be done from home. I can’t put into words how much I hate Apple products. The fire of a thousands suns. That is the heat… Read More »ADM vs. Boone
Day 3 was the only day we spent entirely in Orlando. It was one full day too many. Orlando is flat out one of the worst cities I’ve ever visited. It is dirty. It is poorly laid out. There is no culture. There is no music. There is no historical… Read More »Camping World Bowl Road Trip Day 3 – The Game
I didn’t take many pictures at Iowa State football games last year because they are getting stricter about the type of camera you are allowed to carry in. At least they are to me. I see plenty of other people walking in with comparable cameras, but I digress. No, I… Read More »Iowa State 121 Bad Guys 44
The pictures from the folder 2009-09-27 come from a Saturday when I went down to Des Moines to watch Jen compete in the Des Moines Regatta and watched Iowa State beat Army in football. All the pageantry that comes with Army coming to your stadium is pretty amazing. Iowa State… Read More »2009-09-27
The pictures from the folder 2009-09-12 are from the Iowa State-Iowa football game in 2009. I don’t recall who won the game, but I just hope everybody had fun! Here are a few of my favorite pictures: By adding these pictures to the Photography 139 Gallery, I was able to… Read More »2009-09-12
The pictures in the folders 2009-09-02 and 2009-09-04 are from two separate but nearly equally great events. A couple of the pictures are from Alligator Shirt Day. A holiday that I invented back in 2009, but then forgot to honor on a yearly basis. You can bet dollars to donuts… Read More »2009-09-02 & 2009-09-04
Now that the 2018 backlog is mercifully behind us, it seems like a good time to check back in with THE SELFIE PROJECT. The 2019 version of THE SELFIE PROJECT has almost ran its course. I won’t repeat it in 2020, but maybe I’ll bring it back in 2021. We’ll… Read More »Selfie Project – November
A couple Saturdays back a few of us gathered in lot G6 for the sacred ritual that is known as Taco Tailgate. It was almost an entirely different crew than what usually shows up. Houlihan. No show. Joe. No show. Rachel. No show. Who did show up? Jorge. Taco Master!… Read More »Taco Tailgate – 2019
