This picture legitimately freaks me out.

A Brave New World

I can’t wait to see what I did in May and June!

Fire

May 1, 2013 Christopher D. Bennett

Recently Teresa’s garage burst into flames. Since I go to sleep at about 7:30 these days, I was sawing logs when it happened, therefore I don’t have any action photos of the firemen dousing her garage. I do have a couple of after photos:

Nailed

I recently had the honor of helping chaperon a youth group retreat for my church. One of the last activities was a worship service where the youth went through several stations. One of the most powerful stations was a crude cross made from two logs found in the woods and held together with duct tape. Each youth was to write down something in life that they are struggling with and would like to give up to God on a piece of paper. Then they were to nail that piece of paper to the cross.

Loveliness Arises

These images come from a youth retreat I helped chaperon. Many people painted tiles that were taken back to the church to be made into a cross.

I do love abandoned art supplies and paint mixed together. I may have to do something like this at the studio some point in the future.

This is an idea that I might have to revisit in the future.

Expired

I found this thing of interest in my bedroom closet during a recent cleaning and downsizing and possession redistribution attack.

Can you figure out what it is?

This mystery item has since hit the trash.

Robots in Disguise

A few of my old childhood toys have survived the ravages of time, barely. This project was to photograph a few of my old Transformers.

I’m actually finally caught up on my blogs! Probably about time to take a look at some fairly meaningless blog statistics. Stay tuned!

My Grandpa’s old drill bits came in surprisingly handy recently!

Ornament

When I pulled out the old trombone to photograph, I couldn’t believe how badly it had fallen into disrepair. It had ceased being a fully functional instrument decades ago, but I don’t remember there actually being a hole in the slide before. It is certainly nothing more than an ornament now, but perhaps it is time to toss it in the trash.
