Building: Student Services
Location: Ames, IA
Time: 12:12 pm
Composition: Standing at the top of an oval spiral staircase looking down. I stood off center from the center of the staircase because there was a white flag holder in the location that blocked the shot.
Process: Brightened up the floor in the shot because I exposed the camera for the foreground in the image.
Meta Data: 18mm f/11 SS: 1/20s ISO: 100

Winter is Coming
Building: The Campanile
Location: Ames, IA
Time: 12:24pm
Composition: Standing on axis with one of the entries to the campanile. The darkness of the stone strongly contrast the snow, which results in moving your eyes toward the center of the photograph and then to its periphery.
Process: Bracketed shot +-2. Because of the low contrast, I converted the photo to black and white.
Meta Data: 18mm f/5.6 SS: 1/60s ISO: 100

Ornamental Exit
Building: Marston Hall
Location: Ames, IA
Time: 5:35pm
Composition: On axis with the exit of the building.
Process: Had to manually white balance this photo because the light that can be seen in the window reflection turned everything a not so lovely yellow color.

Brutalist Entry
Building: Atanasoff Hall
Location: Ames, IA
Time: 5:08pm
Composition: The sidewalk moves the eyes toward the building. The time of day I took this photo is about as good as it can get, it is just dark enough that the interior lights do not get over exposed but still allows the texture of the building to be visible.
Process: Converted to black and white in Photoshop. upped the reds, blues, and greens in the photo to bring out detail in the sky, grass, and textured walls.
Meta Data: 35mm f/5.6 SS: 1/20s ISO: 500
