Here are some photos taken at school. Explanation: I take lots of pictures at the school laboratory in order to keep them as evidence of the experiments processes in my lab diary. Some of the pictures I take aren't really showing the process (evidence) because I take them to record the colors or the shapes (because I think they're pretty hahaha) instead of the actions hahaha, so... they aren't really useful in my lab diary and I prefer to keep them in my little-photographer-beginner-portfolio. I have more than 100, but let's keep it short :B :

Purple
Le Châtelier's principle.

Pink
An Erlenmeyer flask with cobalt chloride inside a beaker with hot water.

Flask
Erlenmeyer flask with cobalt chloride and water.

Salicylic acid
An Erlenmeyer flask inside a beaker with a glass rod, We were preparing Aspirin.
An unforgettable experiment. It was traumatic, I had had to repeat the same procedure
almost 4 times and it took more than 10 hours from my life hahahaha.
Traumatic, but worth it (I think). Now I can prepare aspirin hahaha.

Life is change, growth is optional
May look like the typical germination experiment, but It took more than two weeks and 80 beans to work.
Unlike the other photos, this picture did serve as evidence in my project,
photoshop was added later hahaha.

Daniell cell
The ancestor of the modern battery.
Two beakers (just one in this picture) containing zinc and copper.
The beakers were placed in ice to observe the effects of temperature in the voltage generated.

50
More from Le Châtelier's principle.

Le Châtelier's
Took lots of pictures of le châtelier's because there were like 4 different
experiments about the same equilibrium topic and we did all of them, so.. yeah. hahaha

Old pictures I took in 2005, I believe; some are from Cancún and others from South Padre Island. I really like these ones, even though I was only 14 years old when I took them (photography was not one of my principal interests back then, not as it is now). I think they are really nice pictures and I'm glad I kept them hahaha

Jellyfish
I added the purple light to this one, don't know why but still like it.

Stinging caterpillar
¿? I think that's the name, I don't really know. hahaha

Le soleil et le ciel

Diabulus in Musica
A book from Espido Freire. I was reading it back then, in South Padre Island.
I've never liked the beach so I was trying to avoid the ocean with my camera and books (hahaha what a geek).
I don't remember the content of the book, think I didn't even finish reading it, but I remember It was good.

Et il est allé
That's the name I gave to the picture, so I'm keeping it.
Think I was kind of sad back in those days.

Rocks
ftw

Meer

Solitudine
A lonely touch of green in the sand.

Twins
My little sisters. They were so little! Now they're huuuuge hahaha.
I added lots of photoshop to this one (kind of obvious). One of my favorites.
