Found Faces Story


                    Out of all of the names my parents could have chosen to name me, they're final choice was, Merp. Unfortunately, I don't have a clue of who my parents are, I was adopted very early on. This look on my face, the blank, non-expressive face is how I will always look. I usually never smile; sometimes I am completely clueless to the world. I feel as if I have no purpose. 
                    I have an ambition to my find my purpose in life; I am not just some "Negative Nancy" waiting around for someone to bring me happiness and looking for a negative side to every brightening story. Someday, I hope to travel. One of my biggest dreams is to visit the city of Paris and eventually travel around the rest of the world. The large question of how to achieve my dreams, is, "How am I going to get there?" I'm pretty much implanted to the ground, barely moved a muscle this past year. But like I said, I am not looking for the negative side to my life. I am a "Positive Perry", living in a hopeful reality and dreaming for the sights of the world. My views consist of the sky most of the time. I personally enjoy looking at the stars at night; so beautiful and peaceful. 
                    Someday, somehow, I am going to achieve my dreams in life. Living a boring life of only looking forward to seeing the stars isn't fulfilling to me personally. I will find my way to see the Eiffel Tower and feel the sunshine under the Tower of Italy. As a Merp, I shall live up to my name and my full potential!

Favorite Panaorama Pictures


This first panoramic picture I chose is of the New York City Brooklyn Bridge. I find the contrast between  black and white in panorama photos beautiful, especially with this particular picture with the city lights. Using panorama fits perfectly with this picture because the camera captures the majority of the bridge and includes most of the city in the background. I personally love New York and would love to visit someday and this picture shows the beauty of the city at night.


The second picture I was fond of as a panorama picture is of Crater Lake. I've personally seen Crater Lake and taking a panoramic picture is a wonderful camera technique to capture the entire essence of the colorful lake with the breathtaking nature surrounding the lake as the edges of the picture.
