Purdue grounds

Quads, towers, banners—four seasons on West Lafayette brick

Sunny autumn campus walk: two students head away down an asphalt path flanked by red and gold maples, brown leaf litter, and red brick halls under blue sky, framed by overhanging branches
Watching the seasons change
Split vertical composite of the same tall brick clock tower—left half in daylight with blue sky and students near the base, right half at night with blue-lit clock faces and green spotlit stone arches
Caught it on both sides of the clock
Low-angle view from the road looking up at the Purdue University gateway arch with white serif lettering, stone pillars and lanterns, bare trees and snow patches under a bright winter sky
Arch-ived this moment
Black Purdue University banner with gold motion P and white serif text, hung from a black lamppost against a pale gray winter sky and thin bare branches
Same campus, different light
The Purdue University bell tower as an airplane flies overhead.
Flying through
Tall building banner on red brick: navy field with white words Persistently Pursuing Giant Leaps beside a photo of a gymnast mid-motion, seen from a low angle with glass windows above
Marketing department understood the assignment
Weathered dark bronze Unfinished P campus sculpture framed by soft green leaves in the foreground, white van and lamppost beyond under sunlit trees and blue sky
Peeking through the hedges at a landmark
Night view of a slender brick clock tower with glowing white clock faces and lit belfry, rising above warm streetlamps and silhouetted tree branches against deep blue sky
Office hours extended to midnight
Bronze statue of young Neil Armstrong seated on a stone ledge with his name carved in the plinth, flight jacket and thoughtful pose, modern glass building and green trees behind
Before the moon, there was homework
Abstract night photograph of vertical green, white, and red light columns blurred into soft waves with scattered multicolor bokeh, like reflections on wet glass or rippled water
Everyone's a Ferrari fan
Wet red herringbone brick walkway in rain, glossy puddles and ripples, green hedge and vintage lamppost left, grass and distant bare trees and stop sign fading into gray haze
Slipping town
Low angle across a shallow puddle on wet asphalt reflecting gray sky and bare branches, soft-focus brick academic building with red roof and lamppost beyond on an overcast day
