On the left side of the field is a man with moderately short hair has the ball on the far left, he has a white jersey and shirts with lettering CORNELL 21. Behind him is Cornell 22 and we see just the number 14 on the far right and two Princeton players in black looking away from us with half full stands in the back.

I'm currently obsessed with two things: cones and snow, and this photo has both

⏳Seems like forever since I pulled out the 90mm/2.8 lens that I used to shoot this African daisy last summer... and yeah, I will reboot my photo processing pipeline one of these days
#photo #photography #flowers

Flower with numerous petals that are red at the base turning yellow to the tips seen from the side coming out of a single stem with pleasantly blurred leaves and a splash of orange near the top which must have been another flower of some kind

Tower of Sage Hall between Upson Hall (left) and Phillips Hall (right) which is currently under reconstruction -- as soon as the new Computer Science building opened they moved offices out of Phillips into my building
#photo #photography

In the far field in the high center a tower topped with a tall square pyramid, to the left a building with yellow-lined windows and horizontally grooved facade, to the right a building with a stone exterior with windows covered up with green boards with a pair of shiny HVAC tubes and building with grey horizontal rectangular panels and a shiny smokestack under a featureless grey sky

Near and far daffodils caught at the visitor center for Cornell's Botanic Gardens
#photo #photography #flowers

If the three daffodils in perfect focus near the front with yellow outer petals and an inner orange core weren't enough, there are many many more in the far field blurred out.

#photo #photography #trees #fall

Three abstract concrete shapes on three pedestals just a little left of the center, behind that a spectacular almost-spherical tree with a yellow-to-red gradiant from bottom to top as well as green grass and other trees in various yellows and greens with a big cumulus cloud in an otherwise blue sky

Jetty protecting the harbor immediately south of Portsmouth, NY seen from Odiorne State Park

A short obelisk with a triangular sign and probably a light is on the edge of a thine jetty of light colored boulders just below the horizon of a slightly choppy sea with languid clouds stretched horizontally above

Lately I make a point to point out olfactory impressions which are more common in human areas (though it's impolite to tell people you can smell the tomato sauce on their pasta 40 feet away) -- these are much less common in the woods but this area in Shindagin Hollow has a definite scent of pine
#photo #photography

A narrow trampled path in the snow weaves behind numerous tall and thing evergreen stems -- can you smell it?

#photo #photography <…

Four students wearing camouflage military clothes on red indoor track with bright windows in background -- when I took this photo I expected the NAVY/MARINES sign behind them to be visible but... it's not!
