More
of Ted's Greatest Photos here! |
|
|
| A
couple of years ago I sent Ted a picture taken at the Attica
Potawatomi Festival of Mitchell and his cousin Cameron sitting
on a chopper motorcycle. All I said to him was that "I
sensed a Peter Fonda - Jack Nicholson thing going on."
Here's what Ted did with the picture! (Also, see the animation
that he did with this photo here.)

Here's
the original photo:
Here's
what he did with it:

Ted
Benson is a musician, acoustic engineer, and part-
time PhotoShop
enthusiast. He is
also Al's brother. He enjoys spending his spare time using PhotoShop
to alter photos that his little brother Al innocently sends him
by email.
Little
Brother Al
hereby relinquishes
all legal and moral responsibility associated with said altered
photos presented here.
Just
kidding. Enjoy! |

| I
also told Ted that we needed a better picture for Mitchell's
sports column on the main page. I sent a picture taken at his
daycare, and mentioned that with that jacket and his arms folded
like that, he kind of looked like a sports broadcaster. Here's
what Ted did with the picture. |

Here's
the original, taken by
the daycare photographers. |

And
here is the "Sports Corner with
Mitchell Benson" official photo!
(Actually, if you look at our home
page,
you'll notice that Ted even updated
this photo with Mitchell's latest
school picture!) |

| In
2006 the Lafayette Columbian Park closed and removed one of our most
beloved landmarks...the Turkpike ride. Al had driven on the Turnpike
when he was a kid. We made sure to get to the park the summer before
it was removed and take Mitchell for a ride on it too! The people
running the ride had no idea that we would be popping wheelies out
there, though. |

Ted
formed a new band a couple of years ago named "Twisted
Gold". They are regulars at Joe's Grille 7 in Indianapolis.
Check the TwistedGold MySpace page for details!
You
can find all kinds of great new twisted photos by Ted on their website.
Here's an example below.
Ted recreates the Sgt. Pepper album cover...featuring some of his
favorite "characters".

There's
No Stopping Him
For
Christmas 2005, Ted decided to provide a ready-made Christmas
card for us. He also decided to pick on me for complaining
about having to mow so much. Other goodies below feature Mitchell
playing guitar with Eric Clapton, playing keyboards with Aerosmith,
and helping Daddy vacuum the house. |

I
guess for this picture, you have to understand that Ted
and I have nearly all of the Smothers Brothers routines
memorized.
Tommy
Smothers always complained that the only pet he had when
he was a kid was
a pet chicken.

When
our sister Carolyn was in college, she had a Triumph Harold
car. Yes, that was actually the real
name of the car. Her car looked
exactly like the one in this picture.
Ted figured it would be nice to give Carolyn one more chance
to be back in "Harold". Only this time with Hanna
riding in the back, of course.
