In August of 2019, I went to Yosemite National Forest and the High Sierras for a backpacking trip with nine other students from my high school. Although it was completely out of my comfort zone, those 26 days made August 2019 the best month of my life.  While I was there, I brought a small Canon camera and took photographs of the things that caught my eye or took my breath away. I hope they leave you in as much awe as they left me in while I was hiking!
