As an amateur photographer with little actual understanding of photographical principles, my photo taking process is largely intuitive.

Although delighted by the quiet evening ambiance of Joshua Tree National Park, my family and I were exhausted from a long day of hiking.

This photograph "glass hour" was taken in Manhattan New York.

The photograph that I have submitted is a display of a normal and natural thing: grass.

I wanted to photograph joy.

Since I was little I have struggled with anxiety and have always been quite shy.

As I am a person that has a love for nature, during my excursion to an aquarium, I tried to capture what the sea life I observed was feeling.

I was in a theater in Las Vegas with my cousin and uncle.

My artistic process comes from the world around me. I love to capture photos that, if I were to show them to someone, they would be impressed with what I have taken, and I hope they see more of it and wonder what it could mean, as in the photo of the birds flying through and the sunset behind some trees coming through and reflecting back at me in the water.

Exploring and expressing my creativity has had a positive impact on my life.

My photo is about the feeling of embracing somebody.

The picture I took is not a dog. It is a cat I call Meowy.

I noticed while walking down the halls the star and it spoke to me as I proceeded to take a snapshot.

This was a simple flower that most people would walk by or not even recognize but that was the first thing I saw walking by the benches and saw beauty in this one flower.

Dog Mirror Selfie was shot on black and white 35mm film and developed by me in the darkroom.

This photo was created for a purpose of a class assignment, although I have come to really enjoy it.
