When we were camping in Calico, we were next to a small cliff, and we had lots of fun trying to climb it. We pretended it was a big, huge rock.

Having a pet isn't just having a companion, it's also having an adventure, with that companion. The cat to the left is Jiji and the cat to the right is Queenie.

This photo was taken in the Sierra Nevada mountains on the road to a nearby hiking trail. The cows had been allowed to roam the mountainside and had been following the road for a while. As they hiked along, side by side, I realized that they resembled a group of friends enjoying nature together and took the picture to highlight part of their adventure. California is well-known for its warm beaches and beautiful weather, but I've always loved exploring the mountains and discovering the variety of plants and animals that live there. It's fun to see that even the cows enjoy the mountains too!

Tying a car to the theme of “Adventure” is not as simple or obvious as a road trip or a trip to the mall. A car, like other vehicles, represents transportation and mobility. However, unlike other vehicles such as airplanes, a car allows someone to take in the full scenery and absorb the beauty and uniqueness of the areas passing by, not just the final destination. A car offers freedom and flexibility, two vital aspects needed to create and form identity. It is important not to discard or blur out what happens along the way because that’s what an adventure is truly about, right? It is about the journey and events that take place, mold, and change the one embarking on the adventure, for better or for worse.

This photo was taken at Mammoth mountain, on one of our favorite runs, Dave's Run. We were taking a break because the conditions were very thick and I looked up and saw my friend was standing in a very heroic position. With the clouds drifting under the blue sky, and the steepness of the snow, I knew it would turn out to be a very adventurous picture.

I woke up early one morning on my Alaskan cruise with my family and saw the most breathtaking view outside my balcony. It was a completely different world compared to the loud and busy streets of the city.

I took this photo early in the morning. I remember I was on my way to school when I saw this beautiful sunrise. I had to take my camera out to take a photo! I feel that this photo relates to the theme because it shows an eye catching sunrise and how it makes you wanna go toward it follow it.

I took this picture when I was going on a walk around my neighborhood with my family. I saw this really interesting looking cactus, so I decided to take a picture. I thought the picture ended up looking really cool because of the sun going in between the cactus.

Waking up knowing a big day at Disneyland awaits. A whimsical fairytale like place, and you spot Mickey Mouse on a colorful Ferris wheel. Stepping just one foot into the park and the smile doesn’t leave my face. The air automatically flows joyous energy surrounding every single person at the park. And every ride is a new adventure waiting to happen.

There are so many cool places to explore. Many of those cool places have beautiful ducks. The ducks are found in many fun places, like lakes, creeks, and ponds. Their beautiful colors are always different. Ducks remind me of all the places we need to go.
