The Quad at Bucknell
previous / nextOn Monday we took Russell to visit Bucknell in Pennsylvania. It was unusually hot but not unbearable, just strange. The campus is quite pretty although there was very little fall color to enjoy.
Russell definitely likes Bucknell and will be applying there. At this point he is pretty much on schedule as far as the college process goes. He has narrowed down his search and we only have to focus on a couple of "safety schools" now. He has picked his "likely" schools and a "reach" school or two.
This is the quad at Bucknell. The building in the distance is the library. I shot this at about 5 pm after the info session and tour were done and we were heading back to the car.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month so I just wanted to remind everyone of the importance of regular self exams, mammography, and anual checks by your doctor. For more information here are several links:
Please pass on this information to your family, friends, and co-workers. It's very important and could save the life of someone you love.

Ah yes college... a hole in the ground surrounded by ivy into which one pours money :)
But hey, nice shot!
a perfect composition, a perfect background, a Renaissance wealth.
Great shot, Laurie.
Wonderful picture...very sunny and crisp... please do take a look at my blog sometime http://travelnlife.blogspot.com/
I wonder if the college admin office would like a print of this? Sure is a beautiful view! Might even buy it for their brochures & website?
Very nice image. Good color. Very sharp.
I know what you mean about this fall. Same in upstate New York. I went to school about an hour and a half down I80 from Bucknell and this time of year was always so wonderful in the mountains. Amazing color. This crazy weather has thrown everything off!
@ Photo Buffet...Bonnie, I actually called them and asked them if they might be interested. There was no one in the communications office at the time so I gave the admissions office the website link and told them they could contact me through the website if they are interested.
Bonsoir,
Nice shot..Wonderful tones..Bravo!
I was going to say that this is a postcard perfect shot. Beautiful Old School feel to it. It looks like a great choice for your son.
Have a great weekend. Don't run around too much, just enjoy..
Postcard perfect!
What will Rusell study?
perfectly chosen perspective. and a little touch of autumn...
nice composed with the symmetry in it, good use of the light also.
Nice composition, the fact that the trees are just started to change colour adds to the image.

There is a wonderful ambience here, Laurie, with the light that you've captured. I can see why this made it into a the Bucknell Magazine! Congratulations.
