For this one, I was too late

Barren tree

You might not spot it, but this tree sports a pink ribbon. My original plan for this picture was to desaturate everything else, and call it “Barren, and concerned about cancer.” but it didn't work out — which might just be for the best.

Sunset over UWO

Sunset over UWO

The sun sets on the first sunny-ish day I had in London — this particular set of glowing clouds showed up when I was waiting for the bus back to my hotel.

The moon in a tree

Moon and tree

Another view of the gorgeous leaf peeping to be done in London this week — this tree shows up on the route I walked to campus, and it was easy enough to align the moon with the tree once I spotted both of them.

Mathematics, University of Western Ontario

UWO Mathematics

One of the classier buildings I've visited — the Mathematics department at Western resides in Middlesex College on the central campus, a gorgeous building built in the style of the old OxBridge campuses, albeit in the 60's.

With the blazing colours all over I have realized that the “leaf peeping” that President Bartlett was making so much fun of in the episode with the failed radio adress is a real thing: it's the hobby of tracking and spotting impressive fall foliage colorations. And Ontario brings the peeping big time.

Fall colours and a connection

Red vines

I shot this looking for the bright red vine covered building — only when I reviewed my haul from the day did I discover the poses of the two people in the picture, and the energy they bring to the composition.

Serendipity is thy name.
