Lindsay!








The picture on the top left is of the Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs, I've been there almost every summer since I was born.           
Right next to it is a pole vault pole, I pole vaulted all through high school.             
The next picture is of my birds, Jack and Courtney, I've had them since I was 7.                  
I put a soccer ball because soccer is my favorite sport. 
To the right of that is the gymnast, Nadia Comaneci, the first to ever score a perfect 10.
 When I was in gymnastics, she was an incredible inspiration to me. 
Next, Shadow, my first dog and favorite running buddy! 
The next picture is in Manitou Springs, Colorado; my family owns a cabin here and this is where I spend the majority of my summers. 
 Last, the beam room, beam was probably my least favorite event in gymnastics but for whatever reason it's the one I miss the most.

Canopy Home

I like this house because it looks futuristic but still keeps a natural feel. 

Institute of Contemporary Art

I like this building because it looks really modern and futuristic. The only thing I find odd is the way the top looks bigger than the bottom. 

Upside Down House

Attention is caught by the way the building is turned on its side.

Dynamic Skyscraper

This building, designed by David Fisher, moves with the wind.

Frank Lloyd Wright


The way this structure is built makes it look like it's natural and part of the surrounding area.

OKC Art Museum



This is one of my favorite works of art, mainly because i can't fathom having the ability to create something like this, but also because each piece of glass was created separately to form an incredible piece of art. 

Buddhist Temple



I don't know the significance of the Buddhist Temple to the Japanese but when my brother lived in Japan he would send me pictures of buildings like this one. I always admired how beautiful and bold they were. 

Salt Lake City Temple



The Salt Lake City temple means a lot to me because I'm LDS, I think the building itself is beautiful and to me, is a symbol of peace and harmony.

Big Ben



I chose Big Bed because it's such an inspiration, it's extremely detailed, and it's very traditional. 

Tropical Bird



I chose this picture because the colors of the bird are so bold and probably wouldn't be seen anywhere other than in nature.
