  • Top 200 Photos: #51

    Winter and Math in this Top 200 Photo photo #51 is: I’ve always loved how trees demonstrate fractals and I think that’s almost nothing so beautiful during the winder as a tree covered in a small bit of snow. It really brings out the structure of the branches and makes it easier to notice them.

  • Top 200 Photos: #81

    A return to Cornell for this Top 200 Photo photo #81 is: This is another panorama from Cornell. This is on Libe Slope, where Slope Day takes place. It is also climbed by nearly every upperclassman living on West Campus or beyond. Engineering students can avoid climbing it most of time as most of their…

  • Top 200 Photos: #96

    Once again a trip to Cornell during the winter for today’s Top 200 Photo. photo #96 is: This photo was taken during my freshman year with my brand new digital camera. That was actually a very mild winter. So mild, in fact, that my cross country skiing class became a hiking class. It did NOT…

  • Top 200 Photos: #108

    And we bounce right back to Cornell for today’s Top 200 Photo. photo #108 is: It’s a shame that we go to school in the winter instead of the summer. I know it has to do with our rural past and having to help out in the farm, but it’s extra annoying at Cornell. Summer…

  • Top 200 Photos: #110

    Time for another Top 200 Photo. photo #110 is: I’d been a fan of Mo Rocca since I saw him on The Daily Show. I also enjoyed his contributions to VH1’s “I love the [decade]” series. These days I’m likely to hear him on NPR’s “Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me” as a panelist. It was…

  • Top 200 Photos: #112

    And we’re at Cornell once again for today’s Top 200 Photo. photo #112 is: This is from the Andrew White reading room at Uris Library.

  • Top 200 Photos: #114

    Still at Cornell for today’s Top 200 Photo. photo #114 is: Another photo taken from the top of the clock tower. This time it has the business school as the most prominent building. It’s crazy how much that skyline has changed with new building construction.

  • Top 200 Photos: #115

    Cornell again, for today’s Top 200 Photo. photo #115 is: Most of the buildings at Cornell had multiple entrances. Because of the hilly nature of the campus some of these entrances, like this one into Uris Library, went unnoticed by the majority of the student body.

  • Top 200 Photos: #119

    Back to Cornell for today’s Top 200 Photo. photo #199 is: This is Cornell’s famous clock tower and the attached Uris Library. The clock tower is called McGraw Hall. I knew that at some point in my freshman year, but pretty much everyone just calls it the clock tower. It houses chimes that are played…
