[Daily Photo] Common area of Lurie Biomedical Building / 美麗的公共空間

Share this :
I took this photo in the second floor of Ann and Robert H. Lurie Biomedical Engineering Building, located on North Campus of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. The view from this common area is really amazing. I hope one day I can work in an office as beautiful as here.

此照片拍攝於美國密西根大學北校區的生醫工程管。希望我以後工作的地方也像這麼漂亮。

[Daily Photo] Lurie Engineering Center at dusk / 薄暮下的Lurie工程中心

Share this :
I was on North Campus of the University of Michigan, waiting for my wife to get off work. It was midwinter so the sky turned dark really early. It was a rare opportunity for me to take photos at this time of a day. I took this photo of Lurie Engineering Center. Click here to see the beautiful inside if you follow the staircase at the bottom of this photo then enter the building;  Click here to see the inside of the beautiful corridor on the right side of this photo.

此照片為密西根大學北校區的Lurie工程中心。那天我正好要去接太太下班,適逢隆冬時節天色暗的相當的早。我最喜歡在這種天色未完全暗,建築物裡卻已燈火通明,路燈也點亮的時候拍照。我把握這個難得的時機拍了這張照片。如果順著照片下方的樓梯進入建築內,可以見到其漂亮的室內設計(照片請按這裏);向右轉後可以看到一條美麗的走廊(照片請按這裏)。

[Daily Photo] Wright Brothers' Kitty Hawk Flyer / 萊特兄弟的小鷹號

Share this :

This is a replica of Wright Brothers' Kitty Hawk Flyer, the first motorized airplane in the world. I took this photo in the lobby of the Henry Ford IMAX Theatre. Do you know which direction is the front of this airplane? The answer is the "right side". The part that looks like a tail wing is actually the head of this airplane.

此照片拍攝於密西根州亨利福特IMAX戲院的大廳。這台飛機是萊特兄弟的小鷹號複製品,大家可以猜猜看小鷹號的"頭"是哪一邊?我拍這張照片的時候,一直認為是左邊。後來進了博物館看了說明,才知道原來頭在右邊。萊特兄弟當年一定想不到後來的飛機設計居然會跟他們的設計前後顛倒。

This is an American Robin, a symbol of spring. I met this cute small bird in Gallup Park, Ann Arbor, Michigan. It was totally not afraid of me when I got close to it.
