Olivet College. I need to go back with a different selection of lenses on a brighter day.

It isn't often that I consider my Galaxy Tab a "more suitable camera" than my D300, but this photo's a direct response to my dissatisfaction with the Burrage Library photo I shot with the Nikon. The same is true of the photo I posted to 366 Snaps a year ago today. The Olivet College quad is pretty much fully tree covered, which is pleasant but makes many photographs challenging. When I visited the campus on August 9 I was carrying the D300 with a tele zoom, which really isn't suitable for the environment. So I captured some details on the library tower and called it good enough . And returned a month later. The photo above is differently handicapped--the tablet's lens isn't capable of wide angles, so even with careful framing I lost the bottom of the building. Even so the pic works well. And the 366 Snaps photo shows the campus well, methinks. That view's pretty much the public face of the college. ========== This photograph is an outtake from my 2012 photo-a-day project, 366 Snaps . 366 Snaps project discussion and stats for September 7 .
