[singlepic id=1471 w=480 float=left] The MSC Smokestack which, according to the internet, is no longer there. The power plant itself hadn’t been used since 1975. MSC were the school’s initials when it was Michigan State College, after it had been MAC – Michigan Agricultural College and before it became MSU…. Continue reading
[singlepic id=1467 h=480 float=left] Brussels Town Hall along the Grand Place, which is really just a huge town square. At night they do a light show as seen here. There was music to accompany, but the picture failed to capture that. Picture taken with Olympus C2040z, lens @ 7.3mm… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1466 w=480 float=left] A shot of the Swiss Alps taken over the town of Engelberg, the site of my one over-seas skiing experience. It was probably a stupid waste of money to go on my own to Engelberg just to ski in July, but it seemed like a good… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1465 w=480 float=left] Some bridge in Luxembourg… which given the size of the country, a quick google search for “Luxembourg Bridge” shows that there are only two, and that this is the The Passerelle, also known as the Luxembourg Viaduct. It’s also known as the “Old Bridge” which supports… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1464 w=480 float=left] This is the “Gate of Science” and since Univeristy of Kaiserslautern was an engineering school, images of this were everywhere. The building shown here was on the far end of campus, and was one of the Electrical Engineering buildings. It may have been the building that… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1413 w=480 float=left] This is just a random shot of some sculpture on the campus of the University of Kaiserslautern. It has the distinction of being the 7th picture I have saved from the start of owning a digital camera. It’s the first one that’s really of any interest…. Continue reading
[singlepic id=1412 w=480 float=left] Sick of sunsets yet? It was kind of the goal of the trip – to actively plan some photography opportunities – but, this is the last one, I promise. We actually got cheated out of a truly good sunset by that layer of clouds on the… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1409 w=480 float=left] The Mt. Laconte Lodge at, you can probably guess, the top of Mt. Laconte. You can rent cabins there for an overnight stay at the top of the mountain, which, with a little additional planning can be made into a small through hike with light packs… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1378 w=480 float=left] A random sculpture from around the Grand Rapids area – this one is in the park along the Thornapple River right below the upper dam seen in the background. I don’t know the significance of the two characters sitting on the fish-log. Picture taken with Sony… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1377 w=480 float=left] Mark has some nice flowers in his front yard and it had just rained (this was a few weeks ago before tulips were gone for the year). Sometime I like having pictures with the subject in a corner, particularly if I’m trying to use it for… Continue reading
