Post 11 - Florals




I took these photo's in Japan of the Azaleas that had just bloomed I love the bright pink color of the flower, it's my favorite color. I took this photo right as it stopped raining and I loved that there were rain drops on the peddles.
I found a great editing website called "Picmonkey"and edited the top two photos a little.

Post 10 - Food!







I ate some really interesting foods over in Japan, like squid, octopus balls, squid ink curry, soft serve ice cream (already made) and hamburger sushi!
One place we ate at had food on a table that circled all the tables in the diner and you just grabbed what you wanted and paid by how many plates you ate. It was so cool!

Post 9 - Volcanos




The volcano's I saw on my trip were active! I even got to see one that was sending black smoke into the air and shooting ash onto our heads! It was really cool but a little scary...

Post 8 - Landscape (Japan)






I saw some really beautiful landscape on my trip to Japan. The mountains were huge and covered in fluffy green trees and grass, except the volcano's!

Post 3 - My Toy

We took pictures of our toys that we love or that we play with. I chose to take a picture of a spatula because I love to cook and one of the most used toys in my kitchen is the spatula. I was really trying to focus on lighting when I took this photo and when I saw the spatula I noticed how well light reflected off of it and that it made some really great shadows and thought it showed a good example of light.
