Flashback Snow!

Hey everyone! These pictures a little old, but I thought I would share them with you guys anyway! Earlier this fall, we had some snow in October. It was a little surprising, but we get used to snow in the fall because we live in the midwest. The picture on the right is some snow piled up on my dad's truck and the on the left is some snow on an old tree branch. Please tell me what you think about my pictures!

Just Random Pictures!

Going through my camera roll one day over the weekend inspired this blog. I found some old pictures and decided to post them. The one on the right is a bunch of paintbrushes that are similar in color. The one in the middle is clay tools called wooden ribs. These tools are used when you want to smooth clay out in your final product before glazing it. The one on the left is a fake sunflower that is in a lightened room. It may look like it's dark within the room, but with my light on, the focused item lights up. The background darkens. It's almost like magic. Please tell me what you think about the pictures! Bye!

Old Images!

While I was going through some pictures that I've uploaded to my computer, I noticed some (that I loved a lot) that were never uploaded. The one on your left is a basic picture. It's just a parking lot right by the curbside with a stick in the middle of it. It may not seem like much, but it brings satisfaction to me as a photographer! The picture on your right is the top of a sign by the boat club. If you're confused as to what the boat club is, then I would suggest going through my most recent blog posts and see what the boat club is. Please take a look at the photos and tell me what you think!

Down by the Boat Club!

If you love beautiful sceneries, this blog is for you! While I was outside one day in art, we went across the street to a local boat club in our town. The boat club is right by the river and has beautiful aspects to it that are just beyond perfection. In the first photo, you will see a large tree towering over the reflective stream of water next to a little cliffside. the second photo is a little plain, but pretty! This one shows white and grey rocks. The final photo shown is a close-up on a rock. Please tell me what you think about these intricate images!

Dryer Leaves

Judging by the title, I think you might understand what picture will be in this blog without looking at them. Dry leaves! Of course, I think that all leaves are beautiful, but capturing the true beauty in leaves requires dryness and stiffness because that's what they look like around these times. I don't prefer the muddiness in the ones I took before, so I decided to retake them. Please tell me what you think!

Trees!

Don't you just love trees? They provide oxygen for us all and make this planet amazing! If you have been reading my recent blogs, you might know that I have had a very fun photography unit in art class. When we went out for the second time, (read recent posts if you want to know what I mean) I took pictures of trees! The trees were bare but had a nice golden color to them. Please take a look at the images and tell me what you think in the comments!

More art class pics!

If you've been reading my blog for the past week, you may know that I published a blog about pictures I took in my art class. Well, many students did not like the pictures that they had taken and wanted another 10 minutes to go outside and see what we could accomplish. The pictures below are what I accomplished using an app called PicsArts. (also mentioned in my last blog) Please take a look at the photos and tell me what you think of them! (p.s. I took a lot more pictures than this, but thought that I should space them out on different blogs.)

Art Class Pics!

Hey everyone! One or two weeks ago in art class, we went outside and took pictures of whatever we found interesting. After taking the pictures, we went inside and used an app called PicsArt to edit the photos and make them our own. Below is a picture of a piece of concrete below a gutter and a tall/dead plant that I don't know anything about! Please leave positive feedback in the comments! (PS: if you know what that weird plant is, please tell me!)

Fall is here!

I know you might think that summer is the best time for photography, but fall is definitely one of the best times to do it. The red, yellow, and orange leaves are all sprawled on the ground in their colorful patterns. Not to mention is the weather is amazing! Sweater weather. Below are some pictures of leaves that I thought really captured the beautiful colors of fall. (it was wet that day, so there isn't as much beauty as there usually is vs when it's dry)

Dew, Dew, Dew!

So, I think that you probably know what dew is. You know, that wet stuff that covers the grass in the mornings? It might annoy you, (it definitely annoys me) but it's also one of the prettiest things around. The little droplets weigh down the clovers and make the soil thick and rich. Gives me the goosies just think about them. Below are some pictures I took of them. They are in a small patch of clovers on the edge of my neighbor's yard. Please take a look and tell me what you think about them!

Magical Greens!

Don't you just love it when springtime comes around and the grass turns back to a beautiful and rich green? It's my favorite! With fall just around the corner, I decided I would take some pictures of the grass while it's still green before it turns a boring brown. I wanted to do this early in the morning, so that way, the grass would still be dewy and moist. Please take a look at the pictures below and suggest anything you would want some pictures of. Bye!

Rocks, Rocks, Rocks!

A couple weeks ago, I had no idea what to take pictures of. I was at my neighbor's house when I noticed some rocks. I was going to take pictures of rocks, but I didn't really know what to say about them. Each individual rock is different just like humans. I took large pictures of multiple rocks and some on their own. Please take a look at the pictures below and tell me what you think about them, bye!

A Night Divided-Beginning

In the book we read yesterday, a girl woke up to sirens throughout her town. When she looked out the window she saw the Berlin Wall. The government had built the wall overnight. Unfortunately, two nights ago her father and brother went on a trip to the other side of the wall. The wall had not been built yet. The government didn't want people to be crossing the border anymore, so they built a wall. The girl's family was split up. Two nights earlier, one of their neighbors told them the government was going to do something about the people. He said their government cannot be trusted. I think the main problem is the struggle of trying to be with their father and brother on the other side of the wall.

Unknown Plants?

Last Sunday, I went on a trip to Adventureland. (an amusement park near Des Moines, IA.) On our way back from Des Moines, We stopped by a little open space in a forest. I took some pictures of a flower and two other things that looked new to me. Please enjoy the pictures below and comment on anything to take pictures of. Thanks!

Gross Statues?

Have you ever wondered about the beauty of moldy statues? You probably haven't. I bet you think it's ugly as well. Surprisingly, it's not! Below, I have some pictures of sculptures that have mold, rust, and just a bunch of dirt on them, but they look so beautiful up close. Please take a look at the pictures I have below and comment on anything that you would like me to take pictures of. Thanks!

Green Rocks!

Green may not be my favorite color, but I can't deny that it's everywhere! Grass, plants, and leaves. I took some pictures last week that show some really neat features of the things listed above. Make sure to look at those. I also have some really neat pictures that I took on Sunday that show some unknown plants' true colors. Make sure you give that a read later! Please take a look at the pictures below and I hope you have an amazing day. See ya next time!

Flowers Are Everywhere!

Don't you just love flowers? I LOVE them! Some of them may be poisonous, but they are truly a beautiful sight. I have a neighbor who is in love with flowers. They have lots of them. I have a good focus on my camera, so you can really see detail in the pictures below. I don't know what kind of flowers they are, but they look gorgeous anyway. Please comment any suggestions for pictures that you would like to see. Thanks!

The End of Ilnesses?

Starting today, I will no longer be posting blogs about illnesses, diseases, or just daily pains and aches. Starting in my next blog I will start sharing my photos of friends, plants, and sometimes just random pictures that were taken on my phone. Please comment any plants or random things that you want me to share, as well as questions! Thanks!

Post 31-Homophone Blog

A lot of people who are admitted to the hospital have injuries related to attacks. Whether it be from an allergic bee sting or a bear that attacked you. I know a bee sting might be pushing it a little bit, but some people really can't bear the pain. Other people will not go to the hospital, but soon find that their medicine cabinet is bare. If you're actually attacked by a bear though, you HAVE to go to the hospital. If you don't, then your family members might be losing you. Nobody would want that to happen.

The two most dangerous illnesses are heart disease and strokes. They are WAY too deadly. I know I wouldn't want to get those illnesses. Let's say that your cousin got admitted to the hospital from a neighborhood dog attack. Maybe you wanted to go make sure she was okay, so you stay at an American-Inn and go check him/her out. You CAN go in the room where she is being kept with the parent's permission, of course! The reason is that the patient isn't sick but just hurt. You can't catch a cut from somebody. Thank you for reading. Stay healthy and stay in "The Doctor's Office."
