“Soaring to the Skies”
The seagull soars away into
the distant, but beautiful ocean
landscape. This is one of
many other beautiful scenes in
nature.

“Standing Up Tall”
On this beautiful summer morning, these coneflowers proudly stand up tall, showing off their
natural beauty with pink petals and orange seeds standing out against the green stems. Rather
than the petals flat out or up, these petals are pointed downwards, perfectly exposing the
striking orange seeds in the center of the flower. These flowers are one of nature’s most
beautiful artwork, nothing else looks like it!

TWO LIGHTS IN ONE INVESTIGATIVELY, Kate Wash turns on her black flash on her phone by the fire pit. Kate celebrated her birthday on Sept. 16 surrounded by friends and family around a bonfire. As friends and family stuck marshmallows in the pit and assembled their smores, Kate was more worried about her marshmallow, taking out her phone as a light source to see if she had burned it.
