Cornell University

The sun was perfect on Sunday for taking pictures at Cornell for a Cornell Campus Club poster.  Two iconic buildings, the Uris Bell Tower and Willard Straight Hall photographed well against the bright blue sky.  I will use the tower for a poster, and will use both buildings in some artistic renderings for montages.

Artful Cornell

In 2008, I produced a small book through Lulu Press entitled "Artful Cornell".  It contains images of Cornell buildings and sculptures with a variety of overlays and other artful treatments. Attached here is the Cornell Uris Bell Tower with a transparent overlay of a lotus flower.  Please tell me what you think about this approach.

Cornell Reunion Weekend

The tents were erected around campus for the many returning alumni to Cornell University this past weekend. There were numerous events scheduled for the general attendees and specific events per five year celebrants.  Since I live here, I took part in some events and photographed them to share with the class of 65.  Attached is a mural that was prepared to identify many salient events that took place during our years at Cornell:  protests against the Vietnam War, Kennedy's assassination, sport highlights, and visiting dignitaries.  It is always good to reflect upon the past while pursuing our present lives.
