Cirque


This is a picture of a cirque. It was created by freeze-thaw weathering. Cirque floors contain a rock basin, which is created by abrasion and plucking. Cirques often grow in clusters, like a cirque within a cirque.

Offshore Bar

This is a picture of an offshore bar and a lagoon. It was created by longshore drift and swash/backwash. This specific offshore bar is depositional.

Yearbook




This picture was taken at Lake Cowichan. I personally think it is a wonderful picture because the way the sun is shining off of the water. In the distance you can see a little sail boat. The little sailboat really makes the picture come together. Also, the clouds are a perfect white and it almost looks like you could touch them. The mountains in the background complete the picture, with the shadowing of them and all. Overall, this picture is a amazing shot.
