Back to Cornell for this entry in Top 200 Photos.

photo #189 is:

This photo is from of the earliest batch of photos I uploaded to flickr.  I had just discovered Photoshop and was using what I learned from a book to create paintings from my photos.  After spending a good semester doing stuff like this, I realized I preferred straight photos much better than these bits of art.  It doesn’t mean I’ll never do it again, but I prefer for my photos to be photos.

I was standing on the outside of Koch Library and took this photo of someone studying in the Arts Quad.
