The Beauty of Summer

Swimming, vacation, school-free, tv, computer, late nights, and scorching heat.

Summer is a lot of peoples favorite season, but it's not mine. It gets too hot and for big chunks of the time there is nothing to do. So this summer while I was babysitting quite frequently, I decided to test my photography skills and technical knowledge.

So I began to take pictures of flowers, trees, the sky, and other things. I found a cool website that let me edit them for free and soon I had a collection of photos that show the true "Beauty" of summer.

Here are a few:










((And yes I did take all those pictures myself.))

Well done Mary Kate! You've been using your time quite well. I love your photographs. Keep up the good work! The time is coming very soon when you will have your own room! It can be one of the perks of being the oldest. You've certainly paid your dues will all the babysitting you've been doing. God bless all the Anthonys!
