Happy Independence day, all you Americans out there!
(and to any Brits, Irish, Australians and Canadians out there. I will gladly pull you into the celebration. 🙂 )
For today, I put together a photo set of the lyrics of America the Beautiful’s first verse. I took all the pictures myself on different occasions.
Hope you enjoy!
“O beautiful for spacious skies,”
“For amber waves of grain,”
“For purple mountain majesties”
“Above the fruited plain!”
“America! America!”
“God shed His grace on thee,”
“And crown thy good with brotherhood”
“From sea…”
“…to shining sea!”
*clapping* Yay!
And, just for fun, a necklace I made and am wearing today:
Happy 4th, everyone!
What was your favorite picture?

Awww, I love all the pictures! I really like the last one, the way the sun’s shining on the water. All of my pictures like that get overexposed. 😛
AND YES THE CAPTAIN AMERICA NECKLACE!!!! *steals*
Thanks! Yeah, actually that one was overexposed to start out with. I had to tinker with it a bit on pic monkey before I actually got it right. 😉 Oh, and the “crown thy good with brotherhood” picture is actually of my brothers. 😛
Haha! *steals back* XD I knew you’d like that.
Ah, nice! 😀 I didn’t even guess! And that’s what I was thinking! So cool!!!!
*puppy dog eyes* Did you make one for me, too?
I’d like to… Oh! I know! I can put it up on etsy tomorrow and charge a few bucks for the shipping, then if you order it I’ll send it to you. 🙂
XD Or you could post a how-to tutorial for it on your blog…
That’s a good idea too! 🙂
Hey! I want one too! 😛
I’ll post a diy, and I’ll put one on etsy, too. 🙂
Yay! 😀
I liked all the photos but I especially liked the snow covered mountain:)
Thanks! I think that’s Mt. Baker. 🙂
I loved all the photos! You’re such a great photographer! P.S. I loved the necklace!
Thanks so much! 😀
I love the “From sea . . .” picture. The colors are so vivid.
I know! I love how that one turned out with the ripples and everything. 🙂
I love all the pictures!! Good job!
Thanks, Claire! 🙂
