    ,

    This semester’s first issue of The Collegian came out today! I am excited to take pictures for them this year–we have a great photo crew! (Also, some great writers, too!) Check out The Collegian online, at HillsdaleCollegian.com. Also, I had this photo run on the front page today:

  • Day 252 – Studying on the Quad


    ,

    It finally stopped raining, and it was a beautiful day today. Many students were studying out in the sun on the quad this afternoon. Caroline (above) didn’t mind me taking photos of her. Natural lighting, f/2.8, 1/500, ISO 100. Click on the photo to view it at a larger size.

  • Day 251 – “Cleaned By Capitalism”


    ,

    Starting on Earth Day in 2004, Don Boudreaux at CafeHayek.com did a series of posts titled “Cleaned by Capitalism”. These posts display low cost pollution-fighting technology that capitalism has brought the world. He only did a few posts in 2004, but in the last couple months, he has made a lot more posts displaying how…

  • Day 250 – Expectations


    ,

    An aspect of human behavior has been puzzling me lately…Expectations. When we are asked a question, why do we expect there to be an answer? Since this is probably not terribly clear, consider this: A friend walked up to me in my dorm one day and asked me if I noticed anything different about his…

  • Day 247 – Frisbee Golf


    ,

    I took some shots of the frisbee golf course at Baw Beese Lake this afternoon. This guy was really good. In other news, I tried swing dancing tonight. It turns out I am terrible at it. I wish I was better! By the way, the entry on the Team Fortress 2 hats is ridiculous.

  • Day 246 – Shadow


    ,

    Today was the second first day of classes (Hillsdale has two schedules…MWF and TTH). I have a lot of homework, so I am just posting a photo today. I took this on my phone when I was walking Amanda back to her dorm after dinner. This makes me smile.

  • Day 245 – First Day of Classes


    Today was the first day of classes at Hillsdale! It is time to hit the books. I already have homework and reading piled on for Friday. I am excited about my classes, though, and I am looking forward to a wonderful semester! (The photo above is my roommate Trevor, studying away.)

  • Day 244 – Snow Leopard


    ,

    Click on the photo to view it at a larger size: I installed Snow Leopard the day after it came out, since I was on a retreat in the middle of the woods when it was shipped. I can tell a major difference in how fast my computer processes and exports photos, and I like…
