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.
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.
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.
Old Burial Ground in Hartford
In the center of downtown Hartford is the settlement’s first burial ground; the centuries-old gravestones beside modern steel-and-glass buildings is the perfect start to October spookiness.
Bushnell Park Returns
After a summer spent under construction to fully overhaul the pond, work is finally complete and our city park looks more beautiful than ever. In the distance, the State Capitol is lit by the last of the warm early-autumn sunshine.
Sneaky Stegosaurus
Calder’s “Stegosaurus” peaks out from the trees between the Wadsworth Atheneum and Hartford City Hall.
Bushnell Tower with a Great Sky
A Romantic sunset sky with lots of highly textured clouds makes a perfect companion for the rough but linear concrete forms of I.M. Pei’s Bushnell Tower.
Vineyard in a Horseshoe
A whole vineyard is nestled into a horseshoe bend in the South Elkhorn Creek outside Midway, Kentucky.
A Trinity Hawk Watching Hartford
Flying a drone is often a strangely lonely affair—high above the world, separate from it—but on this occasion, my Mini 3 Pro had a companion in this red-tailed hawk, perched on Trinity College’s chapel.
Connecticut Capitol, Miyazaki Mode
Warm sunshine, perfectly cloud-decorated skies, and green late-summer colors from bright sunlight make the Connecticut State Capitol look like a still from a Miyazaki movie. The architecture doesn’t hurt the comparison, either.
The Empty (But Clean) Pond in Bushnell Park
The benefit of living in a beautiful place is finding those days when (i) a beautiful location and (ii) charming lighting and (iii) special circumstances align. On a perfect late-summer afternoon, the pond in Bushnell Park is just finished its cleaning and repairs and has had its bottom protected with a layer of large stones. This is sort of a once-in-a-few-decade chance to capture the odd site of the dry pond.
Great Falls Reservoir
Great Falls with additional great falls grafted on via dam.
