Autumn on the Cornell University campus

Autumn on Beebe Lake by Scottwdw

This is one of the pedestrian bridges over a gorge which they take measures so people won't jump off it or climb it to get a clear photo. ; You'll notice they have square holes to put a camera's lens through.

Using one of those holes, I took this photo of the hydroelectric plant in the gorge below.

Students talk in the Sage Church after Sunday morning services.

McGraw Towers is the home of chimes which are played by students at noon every day.

Beebe Dam was built in the 1800's to take advantage of hydroelectric power on Fall Creek.

Another view of Beebe Lake.

Scott these are great! ; That falls shot and the first one are awesome! ; That is about all that I miss from living up north is the autumn colors, but with shots like these I still get to see them. ; Thanks!

What a beautiful area - and lovely colors. ; I think sometime long long ago I passed through that campus, but I was too young to recall for sure - when we lived in New York/New Jersey, we traveled around throughout the upstate area, but I don't recall every spot we went, however I do remember the figer lakes area and Ithaca on one of those trips.

Nice set, Scott. ; Next time you're there, get a closeup of those organ pipes in the church. ; It's interesting the way they're arranged to fit the architecture.
