As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not a make pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives.

~Henry David Thoreau~

Wilderness is not a luxury but a necessity of the human spirit.

~Edward Abbey~

When we try to pick anything out anything by itself,

we find it hitched to everything else in the universe.

Final Portfolio

This was my final portfolio for my black and white photography class. I got a 90 or 91 on it.

Fixed Version of Self Portrait

Mom fixed my self portrait. :) Should have turned this one in.

Self Portrait

Original

Cheesy I know. So I had 10 seconds to run down the ditch and across a slippery creek bed and climb onto the tree which is HUGE! I barely made it. For my class I have to have everything in black and white, I messed up my skin color but I still got a 91!

Children are all foreigners.

Cross Country Ski Trip

I got the chance to help lead one of the cross country ski trips back in March and I just wanted to share some of those photos. Two of the participants. The other three participants.

Just some scenery.

Don't be to timid and squeamish about your actions.

All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better.

Exploration

For my photography class we had to choose a subject and "explore it" take pictures of it from different angles, in different places, and stuff like that. So here are some of my pictures that I took of the knife I made last year and Tyler's old flute.
