Hey, all, We've had the first honest day of Spring here today, and I felt inspired to go around and take some classic 'campus shots' of my school. I have about a dozen in total. This is a shot of the north end of the engineering quad - home of old buildings, gothic architecture, etc. I also have some pics around of all the modern art on the humanities quad. I love the irony of this campus. :-) It's very different from usual heavy-Photoshop style, but I thought it might be fun. Even now I'm having ideas about how to majorly edit one of them, though...

What a nice crisp shot! Im not to familiar with your school so before I embarrass myself and take a guess which it is, I'll let someone else...Could we entice you into taking some more shots of the church? LOL

Well, there's this one I took of the flying buttresses along the side - sort of an interesting geometrical study. I also have one of the stained glass window, if you're interested. Malenchite

Here's the window - from inside it's just above the front altar of the church. Malenchite

Alpha, That sounds really awesome... I'll have to see if the church is open to the public at some point. If not, maybe I can do some similar thing with the outside window... hmmm... Anyway, I'm off to take some night shots in thick fog (!) - the timing is perfect. I'll put them up soon. :) Malenchite
