I included this picture because it is my profile picture on Instagram. I also like how the sun is right above me and it just looks like a glowing circle becuase of smoke and clouds in the way. This picture was taken at the beach somewhere in Virginia. It was taken on an iPhone 16.

I included this picture because it has a variety of color and there is a lot going on in the picture. I could have gotten a better angle but this was the best one I could find. I took this picture in New York Times Square on an Iphone 16

I included this picture because of the colors reflecting off of the buildings. They go from yellowish orange to blue. I also like how detailed it is. I took this picture when leaving NYC on a ferry. It was taken on an Iphone 16.

This is the Statue of Liberty in NYC and I included it becuase I like how it is a silhouette and I like that you can almost see where the colors are changing in the sunset. I took this on an Iphone 16.

I included this picture because there is like three parellel lines going off into the distance with the ocean and the sticks or algea. I took this picture at a beach in Virginia and it was also on an Iphone 16.

I included this picture because the clouds and the beach kind of curve and the beach almost makes a whirpool affect going into the middle where theres black rocks. I took this picture also in Virginia at the same beach as the one above. This was also take on an Iphone 16.
