EDIT 3/17/2008: I have removed this image from ArtistRising, as I'm extremely dissatisfied with the formats they have available for square images. As soon as I find a different outlet for my square images, I will let you know. You can, of course, purchase prints directly from me. If you want to do so, contact me via e-mail (kelly.hoffart [at] gmail.com).

Check out prints I have available by clicking here!The Orphan Grain Train is a charity based out of Norfolk, Nebraska, and begun by Clayton Andrew, owner of Andrew's Van Lines (a moving company). They distribute food and needed clothing to where it's needed, I believe anywhere in the world, but it could be in Russia and former Soviet republics only. An Andrew's driver whom I used to work for some days was the one to drive their inaugural truck.
I don't believe that the grain elevator in the background is in any way affiliated with the Orphan Grain Train.

This one is from the only roll of 35mm film I shot last year (which was in December). The film was quite old and had been in the refrigerator too long, so this was the only good one out of the bunch. It's at Wyuka Cemetery here in Lincoln, Nebraska, and these are all soldiers' graves, mostly from WWII.

More from the
Museum of Nebraska History, as part of a
Lincoln Flickr group event: this is part of a bison (or buffalo) skeleton. I thought the skull was too obvious a point to focus on, so I chose the ribs instead. I was going to title it differently, but I noticed in small lettering the words "rib sled" in the far upper left corner, and I thought that would make a unique title for it too. Here is another shot, an eagle feather bonnet from a Western Sioux tribe:

The
Lincoln Flickr group had another Flickr walk on Saturday, this time to the
Museum of Nebraska History. Despite the dim lighting throughout most of the museum, and the rule against flash photography (and my failure to bring a tripod) many of us were able to get some very good shots. This first one is a phrenology bust chart, and it's exactly the kind of thing that I like to shoot. According to the accompanying description, "Phrenology was a popular nineteenth-century pseudoscience that claimed a person's personality and intellect could be determined by studying the shape of the skull." And since this one is so creepy, I thought I'd share a couple other creepy looking shots I took.

Here are two more pictures of the house from yesterday's picture. The reason it's so torn up is because the fire department used it for drills before the demolition. I imagine that looked a little like the video for Metallica's rendition of "Whiskey in the Jar," which would be really cool. Anyway, if I can remember to get the pictures off the camera then tomorrow I'll be able to share some shots of them actually tearing the house down.

Here's one I took in November of 2004. One of my best friends from high school and elementary school asked me to take pictures of his daughters, and I did so using my Yashica FX-7 Super and, I believe, 400 ISO Kodak over-the-counter film. I scanned it in recently and converted to black and white, and then I added vignetting and film grain to give it a nostalgic feel. I was kind of leery about posting this picture earlier, but since it's been over two years since the picture was taken I feel more comfortable about it now.

I'll be leaving the law college soon, since classes are done, so here is a picture of the library, where I work.
No new posts for the rest of the week, but Sunday there will be a new post, starting a series in honor of my first anniversary.
