Visual Campus

Closet

2006-01-19T14:07:00.000-05:00

This is a shot of an open storage closet I passed on the 4th floor of WIlliams. I didn't realize that our closets were so decorated.

Rain

2005-12-09T11:00:00.000-05:00

A picture of some ferns after one of those rainstorms during Fall.

End of the semester

2005-12-08T17:50:00.000-05:00

Well the semester is coming to an end... here's a shot of how we at UVM like to celebrate that. Or heck, how we like to celebrate any night at all. A near miss in this picture, some of the shots were truly awe inspiring that night.

No Parking

2005-12-08T17:48:00.000-05:00

A rather amusing shot of campus life. I stepped outside and saw the scene in front of me and had to take the shot.

Campus Cross

2005-12-08T17:45:00.000-05:00

I found this visually interesting shape lurking in the construction on campus. It's looking down into the joint between two concrete blocks.

Williams

2005-12-08T12:22:00.000-05:00

A picture of Williams. The colors of the building, and a lot of the architecture on campus, have a lot of interesting aspects to them.

My Identity Revealed

2005-12-06T08:12:00.000-05:00

Is it 8 o'clock the last day of classes? Yes. Am I trying to complete my blog assignment? Of course. Is that pathetic? Absolutely. But you've all put up with me for 5 months now, and I think you deserve something in return. I've considered the argument over anonymity on the internet, and I think it's bogus. I think you all deserve to know me, so you can appreciate me. So for the first time ever on Visual Campus, I am going to reveal my identity...

I am, El Guapo. The Handsome one.

Bandit

2005-12-06T07:59:00.000-05:00

Classes are almost over, which means we can start slacking more than we did during the semester if that is possible. So over winter break, remember, even though Vermont is disgustingly cold, there's always ski season. This shot was taken out west at Jackson Hole, but thanks to the miracle of snowmaking, we have some decent days on the mountain out here as well.

Still want to get out of Vermont?

2005-12-05T11:32:00.000-05:00

Earlier in the semester I posted a picture from abroad studies in Japan. Well as one semester winds down, remember, you can get credits from UVM just about anywhere in the world. My friend Dana took this picture of a glacier on top of Mt. Kilimanjaro during sunrise.

Cheap Eats

2005-12-05T11:11:00.000-05:00

Sick of eating downtown and spending way too much on a half decent meal? Check out Papa Franks just down the road in Winooski. What do I get out of it?! Hopefully a good tip.

Snow Making

2005-12-05T01:24:00.000-05:00

Despite the warm and inconsistent beginning to our Winter...the wonders of snowmaking systems enable the mountains to stay frosted...here are a few trees at Sugarbush, which have been given a solid coating.

Two Paths Diverged at UVM

2005-12-05T01:17:00.000-05:00

This picture was taken on the Redstone Path...the diverge creates an interesting feel of choice in this shot. Which way will you go?

Leddy Beach

2005-12-01T23:24:00.000-05:00

Furthur north along the coast from North Beach, is Leddy Beach. It's much less crowded than North beach and is only a 2 minute drive furthur up the road. The beach also has an interesting coastline where the trees grow in the sand right up to the edge of the lake. Makes for some really interesting scenery. This photo was taken during sunset.

Do Not Push

2005-11-30T13:53:00.000-05:00

I found this hilarious, do people really need to be told not to attempt to push a massive, nasty looking steamroller? Apparently it seems they do, and in conjures up some interesting imagery...

The bear

2005-11-30T13:50:00.000-05:00

A moody finding. At least it seems so to me.

Sunrise

2005-11-15T02:16:00.000-05:00

This Vermont sunrise was just very interesting. The shape of the smaller swirling dotted clouds had a really cool effect while below it the glowing orange spread and brought the daylight to Burlington.

2005-11-14T15:58:00.000-05:00

While getting the pictures I needed for our PowerPoint project, I took some photos on campus. This is on the 5th floor of Old Mill, where they have a lot of awesome black and white pictures of the reconstruction of the building. (I think the building has burnt down a number of times?)

Campus Scenery

2005-11-14T15:54:00.000-05:00

Another picture of the leaves and scenery. This picture is right by Waterman. I had wanted to get the "University of Vermont" on the bench into the photo (I had never realized it was on all the benches before) but I wasn't close enough.

Artistic Alcohol

2005-11-14T00:31:00.000-05:00

One of my apartment mates has a thing for black-lights and the simple beauty of our collection of empties.

Leaves in Water

2005-11-09T19:50:00.000-05:00

This photo was taken looking at the bottom of a lake in Maine. I learned that the lighting that appears on the lake bottom, and any light that shows through a liquid substance and has that rippling effect, is known as caustic lighting. There are a few stubborn leaves floating on the surface...

Costume Party

2005-11-07T14:52:00.000-05:00

Well, I promised in an earlier post that I'd remember Halloween this year. I almost completely came through on that promise, but luckily my friends took some pictures of the few moments I don't remember. So here are some of my favorites...

...an 80s coked-out stock broker

...An early 90s skier. You may have seen him in a Warren Miller movie

...and your typical UVM student.

Stately Tower

2005-11-03T17:58:00.000-05:00

Even the fabricated water towers of campus take on a certain beauty when the weather is as nice as it has been.

Blue skies

2005-11-01T18:11:00.000-05:00

Another picture of the gorgeous weather.

a sun in fall

2005-11-01T18:04:00.000-05:00

I took a few pictures today to and from class, simply because it was the nicest, warmest day we've seen in a long time.

Wind Power

2005-10-31T13:29:00.000-05:00

As some may have noticed on their walks around campus UVM became the proud owner of a wind turbine earlier this year. It can be found out by the Medical Campus parking lots.
