[singlepic id=1477 w=480 float=left] I feel like pictures taken from airplanes usually turn out poorly, but I got lucky with this one. Picture taken with Canon SX130 IS, lens @ 6.74mm (38mm eq), 1/1000 sec shutter, f/3.5, ISO 80
[singlepic id=1476 w=480 float=left] A sunset picture with a different color palette… I took this long ago when driving around looking for houses back in 2008, which makes me think it was taken somewhere along the backroads of Vergennes Township. I didn’t have a tripod with me so it was… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1475 w=480 float=left] Shot from up at Uncle John’s Cider Mill taken many years ago. I love how the most lucrative use of farmland is now to turn it into a tourist attraction and charge people to run around in your field. Picture taken with Canon 350D, EF-S 17-85mm… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1474 w=480 float=left] Picture of McKay Tower reflected in what I will call the PNC Bank building for lack of a better title. Picture taken with Canon 350D, EF-S 17-85mm lens @ 20mm, 1/400 sec shutter, f/14, ISO 400
[singlepic id=1472 w=480 float=left] If you turn about 120 degrees from yesterday’s picture, you can see the smokestacks of the T.B. Simon Power Plant including the MSU Smokestack.

[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
