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 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.
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.
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.
Brothers’ Cars
Two brothers, two coupes, together at sunset.
Dry Amidst Lush at Julien’s Farm Store Garden
Amidst the overgrown, riotous, lush, nourishing garden of Julien’s Farm Store (perhaps the best breakfast in northern Connecticut), this trellis-like arrangement of sticks supporting an array of growing vines stands out for its profound lack of photosynthetic light absorbers.
Sneaky Stegosaurus
Calder’s “Stegosaurus” peaks out from the trees between the Wadsworth Atheneum and Hartford City Hall.
Many Rails
So many almost-parallel lines in this image (both rail and power) gives it a disorienting quality.
Light Academia
If “Dark Academia” has become a fairly well-worn genre with familiar tropes, I can’t say I’d mind finding a more optimistic and friendly version—less secret knowledge driving cults towards madness, more dragging indoor furniture into the sunshine to produce a comfy afternoon study spot.
