Post #4: Making A Splash

*Reach the sky, with all you've got, you have the power, whether you know it or not*

 

Take pictures. They capture inexplicable moments and memories.

 I took last this picture at Candle Lake, where a lot of crazy-fun memories were born.

I was sitting in a lawn chair with my mom, reading a One Direction magazine of course, when I realized how pretty the outdoors can be. My favorite thing about summer is the beauty of nature; I honestly would be entertained for hours, just watching the waves move across the lake. I only had my i-Pod with me, so I decided that would have to do if I wanted to take pictures. So I snapped photos of the glimmering sun on the lake, the nearly cloudless sky, and of my fingers embedded in the sand of the lake. I was splashing water around my feet when I was lucky enough to catch this shot. 

Thanks to a little editing on Instagram, I'll never forget that day. :)
