The photo was taken at a watershed close to a park. The center subject gazing off into the distance/mountains relates to a long journey ahead or in this case, adventure. This is supposed to give off a bit of an imaginative feel of wonder that connects to experiences in an adventure.

When you hear the word Adventure, you might think of a path leading into a forest, or a child playing with his toys, however, a sword may not always come to mind when thinking of adventure. I chose a sword to be my subject because it can represent power and bravery it also represents a hero and the journey the hero takes, battling evil and overcoming different challenges and obstacles. The sword symbolizes courage. Every swing may not only be a sign of battle but also a step into conquering the unknown.

This photo was taken in the Bay Area. I used to live there, but now I'm just a visitor. I have many memories from here since I was a kid but it doesn't feel the same. Whenever I felt off or iffy I would just leave finding my adventures, which is why it connects to this year's theme.

The photo was taken at my high school and it relates to adventure because in this photo, you're looking at a plant through the lens ball, capturing it's focus on the plant. Looking through the lens ball and seeing this plant is showing how you can go on an adventure and find beauty in anything, even random plants. The lens ball emphasizes that.

This photo was taken outside with a lensball. This shows adventure because no matter the angle of the picture there's a lot going on.

This photo was taken at Interstate 10 at the Haugen-Lehman Way exit toward Railroad Avenue, Palm Springs in 2023. This photo personally relates to the theme "Adventure" because as I was taking it, it reminded me of when I would have my adventures in the past, being in the car with family and seeing the mountains in the distances or looking at the trains go past us carrying all those shipping containers that had me questioning what was in them. But now all I think about while looking at this photo is whether you like it or not, time flies. Every day is different, and life is an adventure. You can't set your path in life so just relax.
Life Is An Adventure, Take Time To Relax.

I chose the graveyard because life is a geat adventure. The adventure is started when you're born and ends when you're in the grave. The adventure has struggles but that is what is beautiful. On an adventure you lose people in your life, but you can also gain some. Although the end of the adventure isn't physically beautiful, it is mentally beautiful. The tombstone represents the end of your adventure.
The adventure teaches everything you need to know, you just need to take the right path. At the end of the adventure, the people who are there cared, and the ones who stay the longest or visit didn't want the adventure to end. Although when your adventure ends they can still continue on your adventure. Once you're in your final resting bed you can finally rest knowing that you have accomplished your adventure. The tombstone I chose belongs to Abner Weed. Abner Weed was a politician and a soldier. The tombstone shows the adventure of a politician, soldier and pioneer.

Life is about growth and choices; it is a journey. We should all have the desire, if not the ability to finish the race. Our paths can be very similar, while our outcomes can be very different. We can take the different paths to the same destination but the thing that truly determines the outcome is the effort and energy we put into our ADVENTURE.

This photo was taken at my friend’s house. We were doing experiments for our science project. We were trying to open an apple cider vinegar bottle to measure its viscosity, but we could not. We decided to poke it with a straw, and it burst all over the place. We poured it into the measuring cup. I took the picture with her phone, choosing the lighting and placement. This photo relates to this year’s contest theme, “Adventure,” because we had a really big one right before this picture was taken. Let’s just say, we smelled like apple cider vinegar for the rest of the day.

This shows adventure because of imagination, the different ideas you can think of. The hiking trail we took to find this little hut was pretty fascinating, all the green and different colors. There are many things you can imagine while going in as a little kid. A kid's imagination is endless and that's the coolest thing about this.

This place started it all. I saw a picture of Apostle Islands and couldn't believe this amazing place was in the United States. It inspired a quest. I was determined to visit all 50 states and enjoy something unique the state had to offer. Wisconsin was the beginning of the ADVENTURE and also the conclusion...state #50!
