Time to cleanup a little bit more of the backlog. These pictures are from November of last year that didn’t really fit into any other previous posts. Most are alternates for various THE WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE theme. Always feels good when you get a bit of that backlog cleared out!

Another chance to clean up the backlog. These pictures were taken in October of last year but never really fit into any “An Artist’s Notebook” entries. Some were alternate images for THE WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE. Some, I just took when I was out and about. Always feels good to get… Read More »But I Don’t Think That’s True
Time for a second collection of alternate images I took with Rodan139 for my composite submission for the theme SLICE OF LIFE for THE WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE. These pictures are of Beaver, Ogden, and Boxholm. Next week I will share images for the last three incorporated towns in Boone County.
About a week ago I took Rodan139 to take a cityscape picture of all 9 incorporated towns in Boone County to composite into one image for my SLICE OF LIFE image. I feel it would be a bit of waste to not share some of the outtakes that went into… Read More »Rodan139: Slice of Life Alternate I

Seems like a good time to clean up all the pictures from March that I haven’t shared before. There is still one more collection, but I’m going to keep those for myself I think.

Back in May of last year, I took Rodan139 out to Ledges to take a few self-portraits. I think I was going to use one of these for the theme SELF-PORTRAIT for THE WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE, but took one that I liked better. But now feels like a good time… Read More »Rodan139: Ledges Selfie

I’m putting off Formal Portrait Sunday for at least another week. The people that were supposed to be featured today recently broke up, so I’m not sure if I should still post the pictures.

Back in February, it was freezing cold. I got together with Logan to take a picture for THE WEEKLY PHOTOCHALLENGE theme of WIND. Basically we boiled some water. Put some food coloring in it. Went outside and he threw it up over his head. Here are some of the outtakes:… Read More »I Set My Mind to Wandering
