Converging Lines

This piece captures more than just two of my best friends. No, it captures all beauty. The beautiful trees moving with the calm, gentle breeze. The sun shining so brightly, making everyone around glow. And the luscious green grass of the baseball field. This what makes me feel the happiest on the worst day, knowing somewhere, someone is having the best day.

In this piece I captured the detail of each brick in closer view. You wouldn't normally see the textured feel to it just walking by, unless you got inches away. This makes me think and feel there could be so much more to life if we all just looked or searched a little harder.

This piece explores feelings of adventure. By looking at it you can tell this picture was taken out of doors, but what does it remind you of? When I look at it I see a bridge leading to the future, new life, and new experiences. They're all just around the corner.

This photo envelopes two things I love and have loved. I love nature, and I loved softball more than any other sport and still do today. This photo reminds me of the times I played on this field and many others, and on hot days the teams would have lunch under the cool shade of trees.
Seeing this landscape almost brings tears to my eyes because I had quit playing softball on a team after I got glasses. Now, more than ever, I wish I hadn't done that and continued playing. I lost what talent I had when I was younger to play softball. Now, I can't run very fast and cannot throw a ball far enough to save my life.
The past can hurt, but you can either learn from it, or run from it.

Relaxation is all that comes to my mind when I see a sunset, or the moon and stars shining during the night. I see the sun starting to fall on the horizon and see the moon starting to rise and it makes me think about their relationship. It sounds strange, but I truly think about this every time I see them both in the sky. What if the sun and the moon were like Romeo and Juliet? What if they were forbidden to see each other? They only get to see each other for a few minutes every day, sometimes not even that.
That's what moments in time are for, to stop and think. What are my options? Will I choose the right one?

This piece explores my love of nature, and the holidays. Evergreens give off a glorious smell, and their appearance is twice the beauty. Every time I come across one I'll inhale deeply and think of past Christmases. Not only Christmas, but they also bring safety to my being. Many of these trees grow by my home and I always feel safest when I'm at home with my family.

In this photo I wanted to capture the youth and life in past graduates, but especially my father. Getting to pass by this "blast from the past" almost everyday in school just reminds me of how fast time can pass. Time is precious, and I'm very happy to spend it with my family and friends.
