Random Images

October 24, 2012 Christopher D. Bennett

These are just some random images that have fallen through the cracks the last few months. Some of them are rejected 365 Day Photo Challenge options. Some are just from my every day life.

More from this random set next Wednesday.

Block Party

October 3, 2012 Christopher D. Bennett

As a representative of the Methodist Men, I had to administer and run the PET Obstacle course for the church’s Block Party.

Teresa took my camera around and took some pictures of the event.

Here are some of those pictures:

Next week’s Wednesday randomness will involve the Computer Mine Holiday Card.

So some of these might be “faked”, but can you prove it? Without checking the exif data?

Personal Photo Project of the Week #113

John 19:30

It is fairly well documented that I don’t enjoy this aspect of my church’s Good Friday service, but I do know a good photo opportunity when I see it!

A few more pictures from our Good Friday Service.

This is supposed to be the last year that Logan portrays Jesus on the cross. It may be the case because he could be in a far off land attending college next year.

Instagram!

April 11, 2012 Christopher D. Bennett 2 Comments

In one of my few blogs of the last few months I wrote about a camera phone app called Lightbox. I wrote how I was tired of waiting for Instagram to come to Droid, so I was trying out an alternative.

In the last week or so, Instagram finally came to Droid! I wasn’t sure I would enjoy it as much as the hype, but I truly do. I publish pretty much every every Instagram photo on Twitter (of course) and on Facebook (biting my tongue and trying to forget how much I hate Facebook), so many of you have already seen these images.

For the rest of you, here is a collection of my first Instagram images:

If you have an iPhone or a Droid I highly recommend downloading and playing with Instagram. Of course, I recommend you following me on Instagram as well.

My only note of concern is that Facebook recently bought Instagram (for 1 billion dollars), so I do worry that they will destroy it like most other things they touch, but I will hold out hope.

Heavenly Peace

Most people have already seen this picture that I took to send as a Christmas e-card. (Just one of the many awesome features of the Photography 139 Galleries!)

I borrowed a hymnal and candle after the early evening Candlelight Service on Christmas Eve and took this picture and returned them during the later service.

Since this isn’t new to many people, here are a couple unrelated bonus pictures:

I’m also excited to report that my new website is almost fully functional. Now it is merely a matter of getting some content and recruiting some more writers. Perhaps there will be a full-fledged announcement in a week or so.

Next week’s Personal Photo Project is the first in a series of pictures that are going to seem somewhat (completely) self-absorbed. Perhaps even worse than my Twitter account. If my greatest influence on myself is me, I’m going to start re-doing some “classic” Christopher D. Bennett images.

The first redux will be Nuclear Library.

Radiant Beams

I went to the early Christmas Eve Service at my church and then came back for the late night service to listen to the concert and take these pictures.

Here are some Radiant Beams alternates:

All things considered, I should have worn warmer gloves.
