Lake Como

I took this photo on our boat cruise in Lake Como, Italy. It was such a gorgeous day so we could clearly see alps behind the hills that surround the lake. Lake Como makes my list of favorite places I visited because of views like this that we got to see all day.

Eery Loch Ness

I took this photo of castle remains in Loch Ness. It was here where many people have claimed to see the Loch Ness Monster in the water.

Loch Ness

I took this photo on our boat that my mom and I took through Loch Ness in the Scotland Highlands. The picture of the life saver documents my time spent at the Lochs and our trip up to Inverness.

Family in England

I took this photo of my homestay parents here in Alnwick. When my mom came during the two week break we spent many nights at their house for dinner and I took this picture on our last night there. They are two great people and have helped make my experience here in England.

Holy Lamb

I took this photo of a baby lamb on Holy Island. We have sheep in Minnesota, but never have I been so close or seen so many baby lambs than I did on our visit to Holy Island and the farm. They were all so cute.

When in Paris...

I took this night shot of the outside of the Moulin Rouge in Paris, France. It was so neat to see the movie Moulin Rouge and then actually getting to see the building in real life.

City Walls

I took this photo while walking the city walls of York. The old walls that once enclosed the city are now available for the public to walk around. I thought the color of the bricks were neat and having a photo of the wall made for a neat memory of being in York over my break.

Garden Fountain

I took this photo of one of the many fountains located in the Alnwick Castle Gardens. Each fountain at the gardens is so pretty and designed in such a unique way.

St. Marks Bell Tower

I took this photo of St. Marks Bell Tower at St. Marks Square in Venice, Italy. I had taken this photo for a picture of the tower (not realizing the pillar in the photo), but when looking through my pictures later on I really liked the composition of the picture.

A View of the Market from Above

I took this photo in the Alnwick town centre. Every Saturday morning and afternoon there is a market where people sell flowers, vegetables, jewelry, scarves, and much more!

Venice

This is one of my favorite photos. I took this photo in St. Marks Square in Venice, Italy looking out at the water. The sun was shining, which made the water look incredibly blue. I've never seen a prettier landscape than I had when I took this photo.

The Duomo

I took this photo of the Duomo in Milan, Italy. This church was so gorgeous and I could not believe all the intricate work that was done on the top to create this structure.

I Love Britain

I took this photo on a boat cruise through Loch Ness in the Scotland Highland tours. I thought that the Britain flag blowing in the wind off the back of the boat made for a neat snap shot.

Wedding Day in Milan

I took this photo outside the Duomo in Milan, Italy. This bride and groom, surrounded by hundreds of people and pigeons in the city centre, were getting their wedding photos done while holding the birds. Something I would not do in my wedding dress, but I thought that they looked as though they were having so much fun.

Hamish the Bull

I took this photo in the Scotland Highlands of Hamish the Bull. He is fenced in next to a top tourist stop. Our tour guide said Hamish loves to get his picture taken so I took a shot of him for my wildlife photo.

The Sparkling Tower

I took this night shot at the Eiffel Tower in Paris. At the beginning of every hour the tower starts flashing white lights so that it looks as though it is sparkling. This was a gorgeous site and something I will remember forever.

Wine in Venice

I took this photo of my first real glass of Italian wine. Five of us girls sat by the Rialto bridge in Venice sipping our wine and enjoying a gorgeous sunny day. I thought the sun shining on the glass, illuminating different colors in the wine made for a neat photo.

Puddle Jumping

I took this photo of a young girl jumping in water puddles at the Alnwick Garden. She was so cute that people were crowded around watching and taking pictures. I loved the action shot of her playing in the water with the water pouring down over her head.

Tower of Coffee Cups

I took this photo in Milan, Italy. There was a tower of coffee cups with a kettle on top right in the middle of a square of buildings. There was no sign so we didn't know what it was meant for, but the structure of it was so neat, especially looking at it from a lower angle.

The Duchess's View

I took this photo in the Alnwick Garden when we went as a group to the Duchess's View Point. I thought the scenery from this point was fun to see, considering we got to see the pasture and a view of the castle from a different angle.
