    A car-related Top 200 Photo photo #106 is: My parents’ neighbor likes to build cars from the scratch. Of course, he doesn’t build the frame, but he buys it separate from the engine, seats, etc. He explained it to me once but I think it stems from some US regulations on what your car can…

    Back to England for today’s Top 200 Photo. photo #109 is: Since I was going to the middle of England for work, I decided to fly into Manchester instead of the insane Heathrow in London. Then I just took the train to my final destination. It was great. I snuck in a five minute nap…

    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…

    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.

    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.

    Reflections and Self-Portraits in today’s Top 200 Photo. photo #116 is: Ever since I was young I was fascinated by visual depictions of infinity.
