I didn't love the photo I posted earlier this week so go out to try something different. Here's some ICM to create an impressionist style rendering of our some flowers in our garden. #52frames #52frames_distortion #photography

6 flowers rendered softly with a swirling effect by intentional camera movement.

#52frames #52frames_anewtechnique #photography Played around with Pep Ventosa technique to try to capture a little patriotism. Not convince this works for this subject so may try something else tomorrow.

Multiple images stacked together of a USA Flag, using the Pep Ventosa technique.

#52frames #52frames_wabisabi #photography #iowa Our 'historic' small town Iowa has lots of interesting details if you take a look.

#52frames #52frames_bluehour #photography it finally stopped raining around here and it was a beautiful evening. So here you get to enjoy a bit of the beauty of an Iowa summer.

#52frames #52frames_triangularcomposition My photo for this week's 52frames theme. The rain and the reflections made for a great opportunity to try framing with triangularity in mind. #photography

Rain drops on a hosta leaf. The leaf forms a triangle at the bottom of the image. The reflection of the leaves in a puddle forms additional triangles throughout the frame.

#52frames #52frames_ontheground This week's photo is from a field behind our backyard. Lovely prairie flowers enjoying the summer sun.

#52frames #52frames_water #photography Photo for the week. The Cedar River at Palisades Kepler State Park in Mount Vernon, Iowa. Trying to capture the beauty of the flowing water as well as it's destructive nature to down trees and wear down the wood.

A slow shutter speed capture of water in a river flowing between two big rocks. In the background are two down tree trunks.

My deck is a lovely place for a morning coffee or a few minutes at the end of the day for an unwind. #52frame #52frames_meaningfullocation #photography

So, I did the random generator thingy for the #52frames_InspiredByAPhotographer challenge and came up with Karine Laval. I enjoyed familiarizing myself with her work and learning about her. Nearly impossible to replicate what she does, but I did try to get a few homages in.

#52Frames_red #52frames Not sure which one is best. Also struggling between orange and red. Is the rust orange or is it red?

This week’s #52frames entry for the #52frames_whatisit theme. This is a cloth that was on the table at our church’s Easter service. It was shiny gold but I thought was maybe better to convert to black and white.

Jim Bonewald@jbonewald· Mar 15

My #52frames entry for the #52frames_rollof24 challenge. Love the little details on this old weathered cupola.

old weathered cupola atop a barn. It is weathered with some hints of red paint. The roof is metal showing weathering and rust.

First time joining in. Cows posed perfectly for this challenge :-) #AlphabetTechPhoto #AlphabetChallenge #WeekJforJuxtaposition #RuleofThirds

Two cows overlapping. One in front, one in back. The front one is looking at the camera, the back one's butt is looking at the camera.

Should be some kind of mercy rule.

#52frames #52frames_chaos I love how new life springs forth from the chaos left the year before.

daffodil sprouts poking up through dead oak leaves and other detritus from the previous fall.

My entry for #52frames_windowlight. For me this one is way more about what happens when the sun shows up in the winter. On my lunch hour I sit in the foyer of the hospital where I work and let the sun beat down on me. It can be a long winter with lots of cloudy days so these moments are gold.

Jim Bonewald@jbonewald· Feb 21

My #52frames submission for the #52frames_shallowdepthoffield theme. Tulips aren’t out yet but a friend brought this bunch to my wife for us to enjoy.

Jim Bonewald@jbonewald· Feb 15

Well I did it. Finally got a photo for the unexplored theme. Getting ready for spring with a little work to the lawn tractor. You never know what you’re going to find when you start this chore. (Which I didn’t actually start…just posed for the photo…lol ) #52frames_unexplored. #52frames

Here’s my #52frames_complementarycolors theme photo. A cute little bonsai tree I got for my wife a few months ago.

This is who runs this account.

Winter and prob mild depression in Iowa is not fun for photography so I’m hit or miss on #52frames. I did however capture a photo for this coming week’s #52frames_chair theme.

Jim Bonewald@jbonewald· Jan 23

Cold out there.

Jim Bonewald@jbonewald· Dec 25

Got some new threads. Ready for game day next Wednesday!!!

Today’s a good day to beat UT!!!! #vanderbilt #anchordown

Jim Bonewald@jbonewald· Nov 13

Not quite as impressive as last night but still pretty neat.

Jim Bonewald@jbonewald· Nov 12

Northern lights. Right outside our door tonight.

My son trolling his dad several years ago after a friend took him to a Hawkeye basketball game. He’s really an isu fan (mom grew up in Ames and her dad was on faculty) and wouldn’t be caught dead wearing this today.
