This time of year daylight is still very short, but we are beginning to have a little bit on the bus ride to work, and it's still daylight after we arrive home. As I walk from the building that I work to the bus I walk past the Law School at Cornell, and many times I notice new things. Today I noticed the interesting architectural elements under the windows in the Court Yard. This one captured my attention.I also like the effect that the reflected lighting had on the windows. The brighter colors seem to be a nice contrast.
Lessons Learned:
- I cannot believe how many times I have walked past this place, and never noticed this. It makes me wonder how many other things that I miss day to day. I need to be more aware, and open my eyes even more. Have any of you had similar experiences?
- I'm enjoying having 2 cameras. It's handy to have two cameras with different lenses. I think it will help prevent dirt from getting into the camera.
Photo details: Exposure time 1/100 sec, Aperture f/2.8, ISO 100, Focal Length 98 mm, Lens Canon 70-200mm f2.8L USM, handheld.

carved feather and scroll? There are some wonderful hidden bits around campus :)
Beautiful building. It almost seems like you can make 2 different images one of the window with the black outlines and the beautiful blue color, the other of the architechtual element. I really like how you cropped the first triange to make an arrow

That's the beautiful thing of a 365 Photo project - it really opens the ones eyes.
Very interesting shapes and patterns on this building.
That's cool! You should do a close-up of it some time. Of course, that could just be my macro obsession speaking.
Sometimes you see things, and sometimes you don't. I think it is the same with all of us. I call it beeing "in the mood" (hearing Duke Ellington in the background).
PS Thank you for the comment! I left one for you at Picasa, but they gave me another name :-)
I love strolling around campuses - as long as it does not involve looking at them for one of the kids.
Loving the architectural details theme for sure! I like the shapes and the contrast of this. Love the interesting quill design in the one block. The rust and the windows really seem to show its age and charm.
