Ireland Day 5
Day 5 in Ireland. We took a different route on this day than the others. Rather than driving somewhere, we decided to take a tour bus over to Galway via the Cliffs of Moher and The Burren. We got on the same tour bus with Jon and Angie and kind… Read More »Ireland Day 5
Chuzhao
As you know, I enjoy buying photography toys. Often not useful. But sometimes just fun to play with. Which if you aren’t getting any joy out of photography, you are doing it wrong. I bought an entirely plastic toy camera for about 10 bucks early in the year, but that… Read More »Chuzhao

This is it. The final collection of images from my work trip to Austin, Texas. When we left off last Friday, we were walking around the Texas State Capitol. We will begin inside the Capitol and the rest of the pictures are from the walk back to the hotel. Once… Read More »Austin Day 5: The Walk Back

REMINDER THAT THE TIME IS FAST APPROACHING WHEN YOU CAN MAKE SUGGESTIONS FOR THE YEAR 13 THEMES FOR THE WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE.

Ireland Day 4: Part 2
Last time we left off we were walking to the stadium for the game. Our good friends from the Luas told us to just follow the canal and we would get there. We should have followed their advice. We followed the canal most of the way, but then we started… Read More »Ireland Day 4: Part 2
Austin Day 5: The Capitol
Last Friday, we had just finished where Joe, Lowell, and I ate lunch ad were starting our walk toward the Texas Capitol Building. To be honest, and this isn’t a favoritism towards Iowa thing, it isn’t much to look at, compared to the Capitol building in Iowa. Here are some… Read More »Austin Day 5: The Capitol
Ames Independence Day Parade
This year I went to the Ames Independence Day Parade and snapped a few pictures. The Gorshe were in the parade and watching the parade, so I hung with them. The parade got interrupted as somebody on one of the floats had a medical emergency. I heard about 5 different… Read More »Ames Independence Day Parade
Ireland Day 4: Part 1
Day 4 in Ireland. This was the actual day of the game. We weren’t exactly sure how to get into the game. The stadium is in the middle of a neighborhood and doesn’t really have much parking next to it. We knew we were going to take a train, but… Read More »Ireland Day 4: Part 1
Cyclone State: Spirit Walk
The last collection of images I shared from the Iowa State-Iowa game were pictures from around the Big Noon set. This collection of images are from the Spirit Walk. Here are some pictures: Still one more collection of images from this pre-game left to share. Maybe next Saturday.
Austin Day 5: More River Walk
Last Friday we started on the River Walk with Joe and Lowell. This week we will finish off the river walk and go through the restaurant where we got a late lunch. Here are the pictures: Still quite a few images left from my last day in Austin left to… Read More »Austin Day 5: More River Walk
You Could Never See
Time to clean up the January backlog. These images I took back in January, but they never really fit into a previous “An Artist’s Notebook” entry. Most of them are alternates for THE WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE. Some were taken in the Boone High parking lot. Some were taken in my… Read More »You Could Never See
Ireland Day 3
On Wednesday, the Iowa Pork Producers Association released the finalists for this years Iowa’s Best Breaded Pork Tenderloin. For us blue-collar-to-no-collar folks this is the equivalent to the Beard Awards or Michelin stars. You can have your fancy pants restaurants. Give me a pork tenderloin, a side of onion rings,… Read More »Ireland Day 3
Austin Day 5: River Walk
Day 5. The last day I spent in Austin for the bi-annual CMC. This is the best day because it is only a half day of work. Then there is the rest of the day basically free. This was the best half day I’ve had at the CMC. Joe lives… Read More »Austin Day 5: River Walk
Parading with Boone FUMC
Last Saturday was the annual Pufferbilly Days Parade. I was able to participate this year with Boone First United Methodist Church. I snapped a few pictures of the process. Have a looksie: Something I just noticed in the pictures. Whomever picked out the white flower to put in the stack… Read More »Parading with Boone FUMC
Cyclone State: Big Noon
For the first time ever, Big Noon came to Iowa State for their game against the Iowa Hawkeyes. It was hard to get many picture of the pregame show because it ends right before the game. However, Barstool Sports was there and also did a show right next to where… Read More »Cyclone State: Big Noon
Austin Day 3: Night Street Photography
On Day 3 of Austin, I was able to get away from work enough to do a quick little walk around our area and do some night street photography. Here are some pictures: The next day in Austin, there wasn’t much of anything, as far as photography, but I’ll share… Read More »Austin Day 3: Night Street Photography

This is the final collection of 2024 images (besides the Howard Family Photo Shoot) I have to share. Then the 2024 backlog will be all but clear! Have a look: Feels good to have that 2024 backlog all but cleared.
Ireland Day 1
Last Sunday we left off basically when I was getting ready to get off the plane. We will continue from there. The first day in Ireland. It was my first time really going through Customs in over 20 years. Getting into Ireland was pretty simple. They asked why we were… Read More »Ireland Day 1
Well, It was Nearly Summer
Time to clean out that 2024 backlog some more. This collection of mostly street photography images in downtown Boone. I think most of these were either alternate images for the THE WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE theme SYMMETRY and maybe some were images considered for a theme reveal image for REFLECTIONS. Have… Read More »Well, It was Nearly Summer
Iowa State 55 South Dakota 7
Iowa State had their first home football game of the season a couple of Saturdays back. Derrick punked out of going to the game so Alexis went in his stead. I took the camera around and took some pictures of the Spirit walk and the Steps Concert. Have a look:… Read More »Iowa State 55 South Dakota 7
