“This photo encapsulates the beauty of the natural world. The hues of the ocean draw the viewer into each shadow and highlight detail so that the eye almost follows the receding tide.”

“Take me to Church”
By Reilly Auville
“I took this photo over Spring Break in Sevilla, Spain on a school trip. It was a random cathedral that we saw on a pretty, clear day. The photo contains random Spanish people, although I was with a lot of people on the trip at the time. I had recently bought a selfie stick and my initial motivation for this picture was to test it out.”

“Untitled”
By Anna Harntaweethong
“During spring break, I visited a Thai Buddhist temple called Wat Pa in Pamona. While exploring the neighboring woods one morning, I ran into this Scarlet Macaw parrot. I believe it is being raised by one of the monks at the temple, because this type of parrot is usually raised as an intelligent pet who can talk and do tricks.”

“A Breaky in Paradise”
By Nash Hale
“I have personally driven down a street like this one holding my burrito out the window to help it cool faster. This photo captures our town’s iconic sunset and combines it with an MCHS staple, bringing back the memorable experiences that led me to love the place I live in.”

“Motel Off Aviation”
Max Tullio
“This picture caught my eye because of its radiant color. I love the calm, whimsical mood the color creates and how the man matches these emotions. I also enjoy the framing of the photo and how the man is off to the left. His windswept hair and distracted look make me wonder what he is thinking about. To tie this all up, the deserted street adds a sense of mystery.”

“Striking Eyes”
By Scarlett Elias
“The reason I was drawn to this photograph was the contrast between the color of the bird and the empty background. The vivid eyes give the feeling of being stared back at, giving the photo additional depth.”

“Untitled”
By Avery Ward
“I find the simplicity of this picture aesthetically pleasing and artistic. The combination of human and natural focal points makes it unique; it perfectly captures the feeling and the beauty of dusk in one shot. The bright colors and bold silhouettes simply caught my eye.”
