Keep Tahoe Blue and Nature Green

 This last Memorial weekend, my family and I took a trip up to our friends cabin in Tahoe. Just around the corner there is a creek that we spend our days during the summer swimming in and laying out by. That week we come to find out that hundreds of trees that covered and surround the creek had been cut down. The creek that was once invisible to people on the street is now visible to all who pass. "Keep Tahoe Blue" is the saying that everyone knows, how about we KEEP NATURE GREEN AND GROWING??

The Unique, Forgotten and Abandoned

My first photo project of my Junior year. Definitely one of my favorite!

 Title: Ghost Present

 Took this while walking through the small town of Bodega Bay. This is actually the church from that old movie Birds. My mom believes that there is a ghost in the picture hint the title :) Do you believe in ghost?






Title: Crooked Step

My grandpa and dad bought a house and flipped it. The only way out the door to the backyard was the steps. May be one of my favorite pictures but those steps were not very sturdy let me tell you.




  Title: Old Train

Took this in Old Sac. Like the Crooked Step I put a effect called bleach bypass on this. One of my favorite effects to use on pictures that consist of old things.




 Title: Building Side

Also took this while in Old Sac. Not the original, took a day or two to come out with this final but was well worth the work :)

A day at the Zoo

 My buddy from the Zoo. This giraffe would follow me where ever I walked down the side of his exhibit. Even got to feed him :) Definitely got a lot of pictures of him.
 Just happened to be walking by the exhibit and this little guy was out walking laps on the branches. One of my favorite animals to see in the Zoo.

Snoozing lions, what else could they do?
This orangutan gave us her best model walk and poses. She climbed up onto the branch sat there very still for a few seconds then got down and would walk for a little bit then do a full turn and keep walking. Entertaining to watch!
