R.I.P. Dolly

nobody@ipernity.com (HaarFager) — Tue, 25 Aug 2026 22:47:18 +0000

Dolly Parton died today, August 25th, 2026. She was a fabulous songwriter, singer, performer and actress. She had a lot of fans all over the world. I, too, was a fan of her music.

Pictured is one of her signature pies - it was the first store-bought pie I ever purchased. I only got it because Dolly was on it.

A recent turkey pot pie I made - this was right before I put it in the oven. The rolling pin belonged to my Grandmother, who's name was "Lolove." That's her name on the handle, written by my Mother.

This is a screen capture of a video I shot in 1994. It was lights on a Christmas tree as the video camera was fading out.

Red, Red, I Want Red - There's No Substitute For Red

nobody@ipernity.com (HaarFager) — Sun, 15 Jun 2014 04:56:47 +0000

HaarFager has posted:

This is for The Sunday Challenge group, who's theme this week was "Abstract," spotlighting the color "Red."

The initial image of the mushrooms is detailed elsewhere, but suffice to say I shot them on Monday while lighting them with a tiny maglight shone through a 1970 Chevrolet Nova tail light lens. I then took the image into Adobe Photo Deluxe 2.0 and made it into the cube you see in the middle of the image. After I had the cube finished, I needed somewhere to put it. For the sunset seascape with the clear sphere, I used Bryce 5 and created a suitable background in which to meld my cube. After I had both pieces ready, I blended them using Adobe Photoshop CS2.

The original shot:

Once Upon A Time There Was A Forest Of Red Mushrooms

HaarFager has posted:

For this weeks TSC mission, I shot these tiny mushrooms that were growing in my basement with a small maglight shining through a 1970 Chevrolet Nova tail light lens. It was a 30 second timed exposure and I moved the light around so that it lit from more than just the extreme left. I knew that I was going to do more with this shot for the actual challenge submission, but this part of it was shot on Monday. (Probably the earliest I've come up with a subject for The Sunday Challenge!)

A variation of a photo I uploaded on Sunday. I made the cube inside the sphere distorted as if it were being viewed through the sphere instead of inside it.

This is some Egg Drop Soup I made last December. This turned out to be the best batch I'd ever made. I think I finally got the hang of it!

I made these fish cakes for dinner last night. They were.... interesting.

Update:
They tasted much better when I rewarmed them for lunch today. I guess they just needed more time for the flavors to all infuse together.

Photography Studio

HaarFager has posted:

Nearly 50 years ago, this building in Harrisburg, Illinois housed the photography studio of Roy Small. It was through him I took my first photography class in 1978. It was a non-credited college course while I was 17 and still in high school, and it was held here in his studio. Two years after I attended his class, he became the general manager of the local newspaper "The Daily Register." Roy died in 2012.

I was going to post a film image of this building, but the film I used was so expired, it didn't turn out good enough to post. Hence I used the digital "backup" version of the same subject for my submission on World Photography Day.

A dozen members of my church and myself went to the Union Grove church camp and cooked lunch for the kids. There was about 150 kids who attended camp this year and they were a great bunch. We made lasagna for their lunch.
