UF Campus...some of it

[GwHizzKid]

I was bored after an early doc appointment on campus and had about 4 hours before my class started....so I took some random pictures around a campus:

1)

2)

3)

4)

5)

6)

C&C are very much appreciated...also which do you think is better, 4 or 5?

GO NOLES!



I've never been to UF's campus before, looks very nice.

I like 5th the best.

Colleges are very cool to shoot I think....they have artistic looking building usually....or maybe it's the time line of buildings from old to new that makes them interesting....

What kind of trees are those in the 1st and 5th shot? They look pretty cool..

 

[GwHizzKid]

I don't know what kind of tree it is but it is everywhere here. Thanks for looking.

they're regular trees with air plants growing off them... they're all over the south

 

[GwHizzKid]

yeah I guess they were regular trees, but the stuff on them is called moss (i never heard it being called air plants)

 

[shorty6049]

well this is what i was thinking of- http://www.sfrc.ufl.edu/4h/Spanish_moss/spanmoss.htm

apparently its called spanish moss. I think one of its other names is "air plant" though, because it has no roots and grows , usually, in the air. Google "air plant" and you'll see what i mean

You should get some pics of the bats! When my sister was at UF I went to visit her and one night she told me that we are going to see the bats...and I was like wtf? bats?! I have to say, that was one of the coolest things I've ever seen!

lots of oak & pine trees in that area

I really like the vanishing-point-element in the last two, and I myself like Photo 4 a little better than Photo 2. But I also quite like the b&w of the bikes.

Photo 1 speaks to me the least, that one looks like you were just standing there, snapping, without any eye for composition, but the following four contradict the impression, so all in all I should say: well done whiling away your time like this!

 

[GwHizzKid]

thanks LaFoto for you comments, it was my first post and it's good to hear feedback. yeah the bat house, I was there today but didn't take pictures. the place was too dark and I was just passing by.

Nice series, these have a very friendly feel to them. btw, for some reason, I think they look very similar to Uconn campus up north. For one thing, we have the same street lamp.
