Home Is Where My Story Begins

Middle School Photography Class

Last weekend we took a little road trip over to Eastern Washington.  Great Grandma celebrated her 90th birthday and we made the trip over to throw her a little birthday party. My 14 year old nephew had a photography assignment to work on while we were over there.  I jumped at the chance to tag along with him.  (14 year old boys LOVE it when their aunts want to tag along!!!)

His assignment had to do with nature and landscape photography.  Perfect!  Eastern Washington is full of great opportunities for landscape pictures.  We went up to the cemetery because it’s the highest point in town and had the best views of the wide open spaces. (Please don’t tell me I’m the only one with Dixie Chicks running through my head now.  Who doesn’t know what I’m talking about?)

Here are a few of my favorites from our little photoshoot. 


I offered to go with  him to class on Monday morning so I could explain why we took the photos we did.  He didn’t think that was such a good idea. Typical.  I can’t wait to find out what “our” next assignment is!
