Not all of Iowa is Flat

Posted by Corey Brown Tuesday, February 10, 2009 0 comments

Some People just envision the mid west as the Great plains and completely flat.

Rolling Hills

Well Here in Tama Co Iowa right in the middle of the Mid West it is not flat at all. Granted we do not have

any mountains. What we do have is some breathtaking rolling hills. Hills that can be used for fields but also have a way of dancing with the shadows of the clouds and yet the ability to meet the sky and touch the Sunsets.

Down on the Farm

They also have the ability to hold a farm and protect it from the driving wind.
Thanks for stopping by enjoy and God Bless.

The Monkey Grab

Posted by Corey Brown Monday, February 9, 2009 0 comments

While at the Blank Park Zoo in Des Moines we did get to see one breed of our grabby little friends.

Monkey lock

I am not familiar with this particular breed, he like most little monkeys are very curious and wants to

automatically start checking every thing out. It did not take this little guy very long to come over and check us out.

As soon as he did he was right to the point of letting us know that he was checking us out not the other way around.

It did not take him very long at all to figure out that he wanted to check out my camera as well. As I can not blame him if I am near a camera I tend to try and pick it up as well. Camera stores love that habit, The person sitting next to you at a graduation noticing you eyeballing their camera is more then just uncomfortable.
Anyways that is a whole other story.
While taking photos this little guy starts trying to grab my camera, It is a really cool camera so like I said I can not blame the little guy.

The Monkey Grab

Well once he figures out I am not going to let him have my Camera you guessed it he just took off.

And here I thought he came over to check us out, nope I see his ploy now it was just a play for the camera. With agile moves, cute as could be he did make a good run at it. However he will have to try some one else. Plus there is no way my camera could have fit back through that fence.
Enjoy and God Bless.

Stoned Frogs POTD

Ok I know I can be a little strange at times and this picture may not help my plead for sanity.

Lost Corn Crib

I have always had a fascination of playing in the water and still do. So when I see something neat in the water I am automatically drawn to it. I took this photo because of how the


light was deflecting and falling on the rocks. And as you look close see how many shapes you can find. You know like we all use to do laying on our backs looking at the clouds. If you have never laid on you back looking at the clouds trying to find shapes, faces and so on then you really need to because you are probably to wound up or just uptight. There is a reason that the title of this photo has Frogs in it see how many you can find.
Enjoy and God Bless

Solitude Enduring the Winds of Change. POTD

Posted by Corey Brown Friday, February 6, 2009 0 comments

Wind mills were a staple of our growing farms back when farming was about the only industry in Iowa. Being used for many things from pumping water to powering tools. Today we are starting to see Huge colossal wind mills popping up and now their main purpose is to use the wind to generate electricity.

Solitude Enduring the Winds of Change color

That is enough about wind mills on to the photo today is a picture of an old wind mill that is still standing in Tama Co Just East of Toledo Iowa. I took this photo just after sunset making a nice silhouette. Now I have a problem

I think the photo needs to be Color to really work. However I showed it to my Wife as a B&W and she informed me that is what works for this photo.


Solitude Enduring the Winds of Change B&W

So for today and to appease I will post both the color and the B&W. If you would like to comment on which one you like better please do (I know you will say the Color version).
Enjoy and God Bless
