I’ve always had this interesting glass ball that reacts to static energy, creating this cool effect. This image reminds me a little of an abstract painting with the various colors and blurred motion. Enjoy!

Christmas Poinsettia
I picked up a few poinsettias for the holiday season, and there were a variety of different colors. This is the orange color and I love the different shades in the leaves. Happy holidays!
Gathered Crows
The other day there were hundreds of crows swarming the entire area and flying through the skies. I saw this tree filled with them and quickly took a few pictures and captured this one with the crow flying mid-air. I also thought that the black and white coloring gives this image a creepier appearance. Enjoy!
Coffee for Two
One of my last photography assignments was to take photos of hands, and this is one of the images that I got. I like how the identity of each subject is hidden, and the only visible part is their hands. This is just a simple, fun image that I thought I’d share. Enjoy!
Self-Portrait
I recently had to complete a self-portrait for my photography class, and this is one of the photos that I submitted. I like the stormy appearance in the mirror reflection, and I think it adds to the overall dramatic tones within the image. Enjoy!
New Mexico Views
I recently took a trip to New Mexico and stayed at a resort. Beautiful views and these majestic mountains surrounded the entire area. This is just one of the photos that I captured, and I love the golden and blue tones in this image. Enjoy!
A Surreal Scene
I’ve been taking a photography class for one of my fun class electives, and our most recent assignment was “envision the surreal”. This was a fun project and my idea for this image was to demonstrate how books are a form of escape and can lead us into entirely different worlds. I wanted there to be a contrast between the dark and colorless scenery in the background and the colorful landscape coming out of the book. Enjoy!
Starry Night
This is my attempt at astrophotography and I also photoshopped a moon image that I had previously taken just to make the photo a little more interesting. I’ve been trying to improve on my night photography and this is one of the first images that I’ve taken where the stars appeared more visible than my previous attempts. Enjoy!
Valley Sunset
I really like how the sun is subtly illuminating the shape of the tractor in the field. I also thought there was an interesting ombre effect with the darker shades below fading into the bright orange hues. Enjoy!
Cotton Season
My family owns a ranch here in the Central Valley, and their cotton fields did great this year. The fields looked like a blanket of snow, and it was one of the most successful crops they’ve had in years. I captured some images of the fields before they picked the cotton, and this is one of my favorites. I love the sunset in the background, and I think this image perfectly captures the beauty of the Central Valley. Enjoy!
