Palmyra, New York

Theres not much story behind this picture. Just a simple shot and that's all. I personally like it it as others may find it boring or bad.

Snail on a trail!

I know it's been a suuuuper long time since I last posted but I've been pretty busy this summer and haven't had much time to get on and post but I should be pretty consistent again now! So the story behind this was that I was walking down some trails through a grove and there were some bridges every so often. I was trying to find cool pictures in the water or moss or anything to do with the streams. I always thought that they were easy pictures to find. However, after many shots I found that it just wasn't working. When I pulled away I saw this really cool snail shell and knew I couldn't miss the opportunity. I took a couple but it was pretty easy. I think these were some of my coolest!

Photography to me is catching a moment which is passing, and which is true.

Fitballing!

Some friends and I one of the first days of summer went to the beach. We had just heard of this things called Fitballing. This is where you dig a hole and put an exercise ball in it. The exercise ball is like a trampoline and we did flips and stuff like that off f it. I thought an action flip shot would be cool so I too one and here it is. It isn't necessarily an amazing award winning photo but it's just cool because it's an action shot. What do you think?

The lonely starfish...

Back in October for my moms birthday our family took a trip to Block Island. We bought tickets for a ferry to take us over. We got on the ferry and I immediately started looking for picture opportunities because I knew there had to be at least one. After a while I had almost given up looking after finding only garbage and dirty water. The only thing I found that looked somewhat cool was these pillars poking out of the water. I kept shooting to try and get a good shot. Finally I noticed this lonely starfish on top of one of the pillars. This really pulled the shot together because now I had something more to focus on. It may not be the prettiest picture but sometimes ugly and broken things make for great pictures!

Buzzzzz

This shot was a pretty simple one to take. I was playing badminton today and a dragonfly landed on my elbow. I thought that was pretty cool so I pulled out my phone slowly so I didn't scare it away. I took the picture and it flew away. It's just as simple as that.

Ribbit! Ribbit!

So today or should I say tonight I was walking around and looking at the stars. I turned the corner where there were a lot of these little sidewalk lights that we have. I kept walking and saw a big spot on one of the lights but didn't really think much of it. I decided to go back and take a closer look and that's when I saw it was a frog. I decided to take a picture and what I thought really made this picture special is that the lighting made the frogs cool shape into a silhouette just a little bit. It doesn't take much to find a cool shot just some eyes and a camera.

Just some pictures!

Well I don't have much to say but I do have a lot of pictures so here are some. Besides I like using the pictures to show things more than words.

Family trip!

My family and I recently took a trip to a town known as Palmyra. One thing we did was visit this forest called the sacred grove. This setting was great and had a lot of places and cool things for pictures. I'm not a fan of taking pictures of big landscapes and stuff like that and part of it is just because I'm not that good at it. I'm more of a small detail photographer and I love taking them. I had a great time in the grove and got a lot of cool shots.
