Adventure Time!

For Spring break, I am up at my dads and he lives more up north. My stepsister and I love to go on a adventures a lot, and have since we were little. But we both found out a little while ago that we also love photography. So we go on our adventures and take pictures :) Here are some pictures that I took... (Keep in mind that I'm getting a better camera soon; so dont judge them if they are not up to your standards, thank you:)..)

Sunrise Adventure

So were a bit crazy and decided to get up 545 to catch the sunrise on our break. Were like that. This plan could of completely failed if not for my mother, (shoutout to the mama, love you:* ) Our alarm didn't go off and mom, forgetting the time difference, texted me to ask a question just in time to wake me up at about 620.I almost ignored the text, but found my mind wondering what the text would say, so i checked it and realized that it was 620. I jumped up and ran to the window and saw that the sun was just starting to rise. I quickly woke up Karlie, my stepsister, and told her that we needed to take pictures. These are the results.. 
this was from my window, the minute I woke up



I love it when the sun is rising because it's so vividly orange

I like the tree, haha :)

close-up of the sun, yay.
the sky is just so grand.



even the rising makes dead grass look good. 
(sorry for so many of dead grass shots; couldn't choose my favorite.)

Creek Adventure

So, Karlie and I found a cute little creek in our neighborhood when we were taking pictures of the sunset. We immediately fell in love with it and now its our favorite (and secret) spot to be. Here are some pictures...

yes, we still have some ice and snow at my dad's house.


not a very good picture, but I still like it.


Water is just constantly changing, moving, beautiful art.

Dams are cool







Coming to you from the wild... Just spotted a rare Karlie in a solemn state. Not often do you see her in this state. 


Even broken and fallen things can be beautiful.


this tree is cool.




Karlie perched above this cute little pond thing.


This is ice and I was try to take a picture of the air bubble trapped under the ice, but i ended up taking a really cool photo of the reflection. 



Thats ice 


Moss is one of my favorite things to takes pictures of.






Little creeks are cute.







Selfie avec le Karlie sauvage.

No pain, no gain. The tree cut Karlie, so we had to document it :)
we also took a picture of her butt when she sat in the mud...but... (or should i say butt)

Evening Creek/ Sunset

We went back to the creek later that day to take more picture. Also we were more prepared... (better shoes.. haha) 


 This was actually from the night before.. Karlie and I went to take pictures of the sunset, ( and nearly missed it too), when we discovered the creek. 
this was also from the night before.. The moon looked really cool. It was sorta hazing on one side from a cloud and made it look very ominous. But of course, my camera isn't that good and this is the best shot i could get. haha :)

this was the next night and it was very cloudy out so you couldn't actually see the sun, just the light radiating from it.

Me sitting on a fallen tree.

I feel like half of this normal and the other half is negative. Haha, I like it; they contrast each other. 

Me standing in the water... took me a couple times to find spot where my foot didn't sink completely under. Needless to say, my feet were soaking, sandy and very muddy.




This would of been a really great picture. The environment is just gorgeous. But there is a Doritos bag right in the middle of the creek. People please stop littering and junking up our Earth, it's not cool. Your only helping it get dirtier.  

our beautiful, little creek.

Hope you liked all the photos! Sorry it's a little late, I've been so busy this spring break. Also, I was editing them, so that took a while. Thanks for being patient and have a lovely rest of the day. It's friday tommorow!!
