My official user page is on English Wikipedia. I am just getting started in using Wiki Commons. I have uploaded a few grave headstones for a fellow editor because I live near them, and they do not. It was for a Wikipedia article. Then, I ended up creating an article myself and using a couple of the photographs too. I take my photographs with a digital camera when I can, but sometimes all I have on my person is my iPhone.

Currently, the bulk of my content are photographs from Cheyenne Frontier Days rodeo. I live here in Cheyenne, so it makes it easy to do. My parents have actually lived in Laramie and Cheyenne since 1994 so together we have photographs dating back until then. I have only uploaded photographs from this year so far. I'm getting the photographs from previous years ready for uploading. There will be more rodeo photos, of course, but also photos of the Grand Parade, the Native American Dancing in the Indian Village, and carriages in the Old West Museum, which is also on Frontier Park. Unfortunately, there are no Frontier Nights photographs. Not because we didn't go, but because we didn't take any. I have to sort through them because some are not worth uploading, and some of the Parade pictures are just the same carriages every year.

I can get pictures of things in Cheyenne, if they are not too difficult. Please don't ask me to drive to other cities, which are all 45+ miles away. You might have requests for things at Cheyenne Frontier Days. I have a couple pictures of the chuckwagon racing from before they ended this event. And I have taken photographs at slack. However, I missed the steer roping, which is held in its entirety at slack. So, getting pictures of that requires planning to attend slack the week before the official rodeo. Just an example.
