Photos from my portfolio

This is one of those posts that comes from way to much time doing homework and not enough time with family. I took these pictures for my Final Color Photo portfolio. They all seem to remind my of growing up. Except maybe the last one. Well, enjoy. Let me know if you can guess what the last picture is of.

Journal #12

So here it is. I wasn't sure if we needed 11 0r 12 days but, here is #12 if it's needed. This is a picture of the bane of my existence. That is up until yesterday. This is a carburetor off of a 20 year old weed eater. I have been working on it in class for a while trying to get it to run, but I did it. First weed eater I have ever fixed and it runs really quite well now

Day #10 and #11

Day #11. Today is our makeshift laundry day. We normally do our laundry on the weekends, but we do what we have too. I'm just I don't have to wash them by hand.

Day#10. It's good to be home from the family reunion. This is the front of our house. I do enjoy coming home after a long weekend away.

Day #8 and #9

So I know this picture seems cliched, but being here in Boise at a family reunion I feel that this kind of fits the mood. This is day #9So, this may seem like kind of a dumb thing to matter in my life but, it really does. This is a fan that my wife and I use to create white noise while we are on trips. If it weren't for this, sleep may never come. It is the little things that really matter the most. Day #8

Day #7

Well here it is. Day #7. I know this may seem a little bit of a weird picture, but when I was growing up we lived across from the train tracks near the grain elevators in a small town. What I remember from that a lot of times is late summer summer evenings. The train would roll through and when you are little it's pretty cool. I really liked to hear that. When I do hear it, it reminds me of home.

Journal #6

Here is my day #6. It is a simple picture, but I am happy about it. This reminds me of growing up on the family farm. I love spring and green pastures. Just wonderful that there is finally a sunny day and green everywhere.

Days #4 and #5

So This is day 5. My wife is home and I can't think of anything that I would rather have right now then her home with me.I thought that this would be good to represent day #4 because this is (at least the 12th was, I didn't want to post on Sunday) is a picture of our guest book from our wedding day. We keep it out where we can reflect on it. I bring it into picture form because it was the 7th anniversary of the day my wife and I met. A lot of good things can come from one day.

Day's #2 & #3

This is Day #2. t may not seem like much, but a hat for me is heritage. I grew up wearing old beat-up ones on the farm and they kind of stuck with me. Plus who doesn't like a good had?
My Day #3 (sorry, I ran out of steam to post this yesterday) was something that is really quite special to me. This is my pup Lou. She is a Border Collie and a little over 14 weeks old and is the one who welcomes me home right now. She is always so happy to see me, I love her. She's great.

Day #1 of Photo Journal

So, here is my day one. It's my bed. It means a lot to me, but I am at odds with it right now. My wife has been gone on a trip and it feels so big. I haven't slept well since Friday night and am currently working off of 3 1/2 hours of sleep. I guess what I'm trying to say with this is I miss my wife. The light is blown out on purpose to make it feel overwhelming right there with my bed. Almost like you can;t even get near it right now.

New Semester, New Camera

Here are a couple of pictures that I did for one of my school assignments. Let me know what you think.

Reminds me of a song

So I guess here we are. I have had a lot change over the years, but the more things change the more they stay the same. I'll try to be better if there are still people willing to look at my posts I guess.

These are just some close ups I took for my Photo160 class. Hope you like them.

This is a music video you may know, but if you don't it's okay. This is just kind of how I feel about this blog that I have. Sorry to family who keeps checking this and there is nothing here. Now there is. enjoy
