Ascension Cathedral

Description
-
I love this photo for so many reasons. The way the cathedral looked in the sunlight, the fact that it was such a cloudless day in Veliko Tarnovo, and the fact that the jet streams in the sky in the background remind me of shooting stars. I couldn't be more grateful to be in such an incredible country like Bulgaria!

This ancient temple is up in the hill tribes of Thailand. I stayed in a Karen hill tribe for a few days while I was abroad. This area is incredible and so different from other Thai culture I have experienced. This temple is beautiful and I got to visit it during buddhist holiday.

Rila Monastery

Date

Description
-
During Orientation Week, one of the first places they took us was Rila Monastery. Despite being so high up in the mountains, we were still surrounded by trees on all sides and it was an incredibly spiritual spot to visit because you felt so close to the heavens. The architecture and the artwork throughout almost felt unreal. I've seen lots of churches in Bulgaria since then, but Rila Monastery holds a special place in my heart.

Duomo on a Foggy Morning - Florence, Italy
-
Date
-
2014
-
Description
-
Almost every morning for 8 months I would walk past the Duomo in Florence to go to class. The Duomo, a massive Cathedral that looms over the city like a giant fist, casts it's shadow and impression on all that visit Florence. Needless to say, it is hardly ever without tourists surrounding its glistening marble walls. This photo was taken on a foggy morning that I had to wake up at 4 am to catch a bus, and there was not a single other person in Piazza Del Duomo. As I rushed to catch the bus I momentarily looked up to see the giant structure looking back at me. I felt small but peaceful as the shutter from my camera echoed across the stone. It was a moment I will not forget.

Parque Güell - Barcelona, Spain

Date

-
Description
-
This picture was taken at Parque Güell in Barcelona, Spain. This was a particularly inspiring moment for me because I had heard about the amazing architecture by Antoni Gaudí for years, but I was finally there, experiencing it in person! From this viewpoint, we could watch the sunrise over Barcelona and see the ocean, the construction of La Sagrada Familia, and see all the intricate detailing put into Parque Güell. It was truly amazing!

Eiffel Tower at Night

Description

This photo was taken on one of my last nights in Paris. I hadn't been able to see the Eiffel Tower light up and I finally was able to go see it and it literally was the most beautiful sight I had ever seen in my life. It reminded me how lucky I am to be able to see this amazing tower that I had dreamed about for years.

Perspective

Date

Description
-
This was when my program took us on a boat tour along the river of Paris and my friend looked at the Eiffel Tower through the window as we passed it. I feel this photograph depicts my talent because it's all about the perspective. I wanted to show the perspective of what it's like looking up at the Eiffel Tower and to feel as though you were looking through her eyes. It's a famous monument I had only ever seen in movies and seeing it in person was surreal. This picture captured a moment where my friend was taking it all in.

Don't Underestimate the Power of Nature
-
Date
-
2019-07-16
-
Description
-
This picture was taken during a sailing route between St. Barths and out next destination, after an incredible rain storm. The rain was comparable to buckets of water, and the splashed of salt water were unavoidable. This experience was one that I could truly say felt spiritual as we glided past islands at a time. As soon as the cloud dumped what felt like all the water they could hold, the sun broke through the clouds and my exhausted body for counteracting the nature with our sails, collapsed on the Bow and soaked up the sun. now looking straight up at the mast, the sails were perfectly caught by the wind and the sun was stunningly tucked behind the reaming rain clouds. But in this shot, hides a small little silver lining gradient, and in this single shot, my whole experience seems captured in time.

This was taken in the Plaza de España in Seville, Spain at dusk. This is a huge landmark in Spain, where people can enjoy the intricately decorated architecture. There are even ducks you can feed! Outside of the plaza is a huge garden that you can get lost in for hours! It was amazing to sit by the fountain and watch the sun set over Seville in the Plaza de España.
