The maple foliage can’t quite hide the Neo-Gothic carvings of Trinity College. Though I’d imagine this particular turret window isn’t a frequent viewing spot, I think it’s about the perfect spot for, uh, perhaps a ghost to ponder the quad.
Jumping in a Perfect Setting
Folly Farm and Trinity College hosted an IHSA showjumping competition and allowed me to line up this perfect shot: jumping horse in the foreground, crowd and barn in the middle-distance, and foliage-encrusted hillside in the background
The Night of (Probably) No Aurora
Strong CMEs arrived at Earth to find… cloud cover, at least over Hartford. I nonetheless flew my drone and I can almost convince myself that I see some green glow coming through the clouds amid the city lights scattering back.
The In-Gate
Color-matched school-spirited students crowded around the in-gate at Folly Farm for last weekend’s IHSA show.
Above It
At Trinity College’s IHSA show, the riders stood above the crowd (literally) while mounted for their class.
Foliage on Request
When peak foliage arrives at Trinity, there’s a perfect moment to capture it and I’m happy to say that I think I timed it perfectly in this particular case.
The Northern End of the Long Walk
The administration’s end of the Long Walk, with handy HR and deans’ offices, isn’t one I visit as frequently but it’s no less beautiful in the fall.
Hartford’s Rivendell
A refuge amongst the trees–Hartford’s Trinity College or Middle-earth’s Rivendell? Flying my drone this weekend, I found a previously-unexplored angle from which to capture our campus and found a new perception of home.
The Old Touchless Car Wash
When is an abandoned building not abandoned? When the new car wash was built 100 feet away on the same lot, leaving this one looking rather out of place.
Blissful Park Afternoon
There’s an excellent playground in Hartford’s Bushnell Park. Its large jungle gym, visible with its bright yellow and white upper structure in the foreground, is a miniature model of the State Capitol, found on the other side of the park.
No Kings Protest, October 18
I captured this image of the protest at the Connecticut State Capitol as crowds gathered. I really like the way the shadows of the crowd seem to extend out from the center of the image.
Convention Crossing Crowd
After a nighttime poster session, crowds of chemists issued forth from the San Diego Convention Center and across the tracks to the Gaslamp Quarter.
Passenger
A bright gold shirt is a great way to stand out against the black paint of this mid-1950s Buick.
Bubble City
The enormous interior halls of the San Diego Convention Center are far beyond the size necessary for most of the American Chemical Society presentations, so these pop-up tents divide the space in an excitingly futuristic way.
Hartford Towers Above the Trees
Golden light, golden buildings, green colors in the park. Flying a drone can unveil a new perspective from an altitude that wouldn’t be accessible otherwise, but it can also just give a boat’s-eye view with a lot less paddling.
