From the Aviation Museum of Kentucky, this AH-1 Cobra was fortuitously placed relative to the flag.

They Fit Everything in Richardson
When St. Lawrence University began in 1856, the whole school—classrooms and dorms and dining hall and offices—were all crammed into this one building: Richardson Hall. Since that time, a lot has changed about the school. Yesterday marked commencement for the Class of 2020 (virtually), left me thinking about the the history and future of the university.
Glider
The calm and gentle vibes of a broad and lightweight glider has a certain juxtaposition with the semi-sinister military-industrial implications of “Raytheon”.
Photographer in the Field
Here is my Decaseconds partner in crime during our visit to Raven’s Run in Kentucky last summer. We were on a cliff high above the Kentucky River, getting our landscape photography fix.
Quadplane
The early stages of flight produced such remarkably fragile vehicles; when placed against the jet fighters of later periods, aircraft like this one look like insects.
Dorm Bridge
Trinity College’s “concrete jungle” of dorms have some surprisingly cool architecture for utilitarian dorm buildings.
Phantom
In a museum full of twentieth-century aircraft, this F-4 Phantom stood out for its enormous size.
Neogothic Tunnel Lights
Though much of Trinity College’s campus has switched to white LED lights, this section still has the orange sodium lights I remember from my days as a student.
Jarvis B
Jarvis B was my dormitory during my freshman year at Trinity College. Before it was renovated into quads, it was once a block-long hallway of architectural weirdness.
Reunion on the Quad
The first warm days of the spring immediately put me in mind of summer nights.
Late Spring Clouds Above the Adirondacks
Late spring brings some of the best sunset clouds to Saranac Lake, but the evening temperatures would never let you confuse it for summer.
Night Comes to Jarvis
Trinity College’s Long Walk was my home for four years, and I still find its warm evening glow to be comforting.
Little Prince Tree
On Earth Day, I really like the image of the next generation, growing up in nature under the shelter of elders.
Dean’s Office
At the northern end of Trinity College’s Long Walk is the Dean’s Office. On a warm summer evening ‘neath the elms, however, it’s less an intimidation and more a charmer alongside the rest of the red stone structure.
Island from the Shore
With the evening sky reflected in the water, this island in Saranac Lake appears to float like a fuzzy green saucer.
