Unknown Pictures

November 12th 2014

Today at school I joined the photography club. I thought it was a good idea just taking pictures. Although the head of photography club Mrs. Thorns, gave us an assignment to get 10 good photos of nature. Luckily I’m practically surrounded by nature so this won’t be a problem. I decided to just go to the lake in the middle of the woods and see if I could finds some birds or something. The lake is inside the woods in this nice little spot where some people like to hang out because of its crystal clear water and the fact that no bugs or frogs and any animal at all goes in the lake. Some people have a theory that anything that touches the lake dies and turns into dust but, I don’t buy that stuff it’s just a lame story to scare people.

Honestly I believe in things with scientific logic guess I’m a man of science. Although I like the lake I go there just to relax sometimes it’s covered by leaves in the fall and summer and the water turns to ice in the winter time. I did find a couple robins and blue birds but that was really it. That night I went to sleep with my camera on my night stand and then the next day I woke up and “JAACK” my mom called out “BREAKFAST” I went down stairs to find out we were having pancakes, my cat Lui was already sitting down and I guess he was waiting for me as always. I sit in my chair and eat my pancakes. I put a whole bunch of syrup as if I was trying to drown my pancake. After eating I get ready for school and I remember to get my camera, I was actually pretty proud of my work and decided to look at it you know admire it but when I turned on my camera I saw 3 pictures of me sleeping.

I don’t remember taking these photos at all but I just deleted them and looked at my work then headed off to school. 6 hours later I came back from school I took off my backpack grabbed my camera and took more pictures this time I took pictures of my reflection in the water. Then I went back to my house and went to sleep. The next day I ate eggs with the yoke all over. After I checked my pictures and saw 4 pictures of me sleeping but there was a fifth one that said nice try spray-painted on a wall. Then went to school and came back home after and I didn’t have to take pictures so I went on my laptop and went to my inbox. Although I saw an inbox I saw a message by “anonymous” and it said “say cheese Jack” but I just deleted that and did my homework.
