There’s a moment when the light of the Long Walk matches the brightness of the blue hour light remaining in the sky. When that moment happens to coincide with an unusually warm October night, the connection to memory locks in.
The person sitting on the bench at the foot of Trinity’s chapel helped me out by providing an immediate sense of the building’s scale.
Drying chromatrography fractions in the Trinity College Organic Chemistry lab made for a colorful afternoon array.
Construction around Trinity’s campus has produced this deep concrete pit filled with complicated steam pipe controls. A view from above reveals a Factorio-esque connection within.
So long as the weather lasts, we’ll be out on the quads, lounging in Adirondack chairs.
The Trinity Fall 2026 semester officially begins tomorrow, but a few quiet moments remain on campus before the rush begins.
Earlier sunsets mean dramatic shadows on the way home from work.
Summer may officially run from solstice to equinox, but I think we’re all in agreement that summer practically runs from Memorial Day to Labor Day in the United States. June, July, and August are the summer months.
I found nightfall had occurred while I was still at dinner with friends last night and I knew the truth that the End of Summer is here. For this professor, that means back to school. Time to finish that syllabus, I guess.
Steam pipe repairs and upgrades outside Trinity College’s Clement Chemistry Building have introduced a dramatic, Star-Wars-worthy pit outside the building that suggests a far more interesting adventure than the realities of winter heating.
On National Connecticut Day (apparently a Real Thing since 2017), I wanted to show these three views from around our state capital. They’re united by a strategy of processing the images darker in exposure than I might normally, producing deep, dark tones and highlights safe from being blown out.
Though science-themed photography isn’t my primary focus, moments of entrancing light emission from novel molecules are going to make the cut.
A mixture of wide-angle lens distortion and “impossible” aerial drone viewpoint make for brain-twisting images of already strange and transient phenomena, like the chairs and stage of Trinity College’s Commencement Ceremony arrayed on the quad.
Trinity sings of being “‘Neath the Elms” for our alma mater, but I haven’t been able to capture that experience at Commencement quite so literally prior to now.
A springtime stroll along Trinity’s Long Walk has more leaf-generated shade every day.
Final exam week is winding down, which means we can finally emerge from our Neo-Gothic cocoons and enjoy Trinity’s perfect spring campus.
