Found Panorama

Sydney Harbor
 The reason why this panorama shot of Sydney Harbor captured my attention is because of the deep and yet light blue hues of the water. I love how it starts at the bridge and harbor and it guides you all the way to the other side of the bridge and shows you the lights and city that there is to explore. This picture makes me feel excited especially since one of my dreams is to be able to travel to Australia - this picture just makes me feel more excited of all the possibilities that there is out there. In the shot you can also see the Opera House outlined in lights and that gives it a glow.
Poppy Panorama
 The reason why this field of poppy's caught my attentions was that I love how at the base of the hill all the warm colors of this flower appear to be melting into one.The mountains in the back make the focus of this picture pop even more. The over all feeling I get of this picture is warmth and belonging.
Gospel Rock Panorama
The reason why this picture captured my attention was the attracting color of the water, especially how it seems to ripple and makes small waves. At first it it only the water that catches your attention but as you look at the picture closely you begin to notice the riveting green of the moss on the rocks. The white as snow clouds in the back are a nice touch to this picture that is dominated by cool colors. I feel like this is one of those pictures that makes you yearn to be there with the photographer as he take sthis picture.

Jaws

           Within the bustling halls of Newberg High School it looms. Green beady eyes, mouth set wide open in a frozen stance, he's ready to swallow his next innocent victim. If you have any common sense you will stay away from Jaws, but most high schoolers are too tempted by his contents. The appetizing Doritos, the  mouthwatering fruit roll ups and the crunchy corn nuts are what Jaws uses to allure his prey. Once he knows that you are hungry, you might as well be eaten. His mouth attracts your fingers and the instant you get too close...BAM! He snatches your arm out in the open and you are left without food and an arm.
           Not far form Jaws, his protective mother, Flora lies. She tries very hard to scold him, but Jaws has a hard time obeying her. When Jaws doesn't listen to his mom it makes her upset and when Flora is upset so is Mike. Mike is Jaws' dad, he is very serious and is usually calm. Mike only becomes upset when Jaws eats too many arms in a day. Jaws love his family, especially since he is the only child, which means that he has no siblings to argue with.
          One of the things that Jaws doesn't like to do is his job. Although he is only 12 years old, he already has a job, because he's a machine. His job is to feed snacks to the kids of Newberg High, but as we can all see, he has a hard time doing this with out having a few arms. At first he was very nice and always gave the kids the snacks that they asked for. After a while, he became restless and decided to play a few jokes. His original was was to bite the kids' hands to scare them a little. This plan seemed okay at the time, until he accidentally bit a little too hard, and a kids' arm came off. From then on he makes taking kids' arms his favorite past time. 
          In the beginning kids were hesitant to come anywhere near Jaws, but one day, brave Johnny, decided that it was time to stop Jaws. That day Johnny as well as the other kids around him learned that Jaws' hidden talent was being funny. You see, what happened was that Johnny approached Jaws and demanded him to stop taking arms. Jaws was very calm and agreed, as long as Johnny would listen to his jokes. When Jaws told his first joke everyone started to laugh hysterically and they all laughed for a very, very long time.
