Artist: Adam Iverson
School: Eagan High School
Age: 18
Title: “Greener Rhythm”
Description: I took this photo last summer up at my cabin when I was clearing out the bullrushes to make a path for our boat to get to the dock. If you pulled them up with just the right amount of force you would reveal this beautiful green stalk, I got it down to a science and I pulled out hundreds of these bad boys and laid them out on the dock then snapped some pictures of them fresh out of the lake.

Sylvan is still not here (Shocker!). 4:49 and we’re still on track! The cranberry juice is a really nice touch, walking to [...]
