Cramming before College (and not studying)

Just trying to make my last week as meaningful and filled as possible. Which means spending money and going everywhere and trying to see tons of people. 

Making bug-themed cupcakes with Cinco!
Hitting up the Walker Art Center for free Thursdays with the amigos!
Being awkward and dorky at the Sculpture Garden with Cinco. 
Full on geeking at the Mayan exhibit at the Science Museum of Minnesota
No tattoos, no piercings... I settled with a dread. Let's see how long this lasts. At least the beads are fun!
Spending a Monday afternoon painting and drawing on the back porch in the sun :) #perfect

Columbia Gorge Teen Camps 2013

Just worked as a CIT at a photography camp in Oregon/Washington for 10 days- here are my top 6 shots plus my self portrait, soon to be followed by some of my other favorites. 
 We hiked down into some ice caves and used flashlights to light up the ice! It was so cool... literally. I was glad that I was Minnesotan because everyone else was so chilly. 
 We spent a morning at an antique car show- I got to drive a 1967 Rolls Royce! IT WAS SICK. 
 There was an artist painting a sign on the side of an antique plane at the antique car show (WAAM Museum in Hood River, Oregon. 
 10 minute long exposure at 2 am overlooking Mt. Hood in Oregon! Love this shot. 
 This was some of my first HDR photography- it was of a waterfall that we hiked up to near Multinomah Falls. Long hike- climbed over 2000 feet in half an hour- but also totally worth some of the pictures. 
 Everyone had to do a self portrait, this was mine! 
I made a collage of shots that I took of dew drops on grass one morning at 5 am. Cold but cool pictures!

Key Largo

Flew down to finish up scuba certification- I passed! While I was there I decided to shoot a little bit. The bird refused to be slow and my camera refused to be fast... so my apologies. But the sunset was gorgeous.





Northern Sparks Art Festival

Took me awhile to get around to working on these pictures, but we had a blast! Mpls for the win. 


 Go, Cole, go!



 So focused! So interested!
