Daily Photo is temporarily halted

Hello everyone, I'm here to announce that my "Daily Photo" project was temporarily halted. I am glad that the project had lasted for six mouths. I have to admit that it was not easy to post a high quality photo with full description per day. However, this is not an end of my photo adventure, and I will still post some photos irregularly. I really hope the "Daily Photo" will be restarted after a while, and at the same time, maybe I will design a whole new website for my photography. So...please stay tuned.

[Daily Photo] Burton Memorial Tower at dusk

I went to the Ann Arbor Summer Festival on Central Campus of the University of Michigan in the evening. There were so many people enjoying the music and food at Ingalls Mall in front of Rackham Building. After snapping some photos of the events, I moved to the other side of Ingalls Mall where it was not so crowded. The Burton Memorial Tower was just beside me and it looked amazing at night. I couldn't help but take this long exposure photo.

[Daily Photo] Beautiful water fountain at Boston Common and Massachusetts State House / 波士頓公園的噴水池和麻州議會

I was visiting the famous Freedom Trail in Boston, Massachusetts. I took this photo from the first spot of Freedom Tail --- Boston Common. The building in the background with gold dome is Massachusetts State House, which is the second spot of Freedom Trail. I figured out this composition right after I arrived at Bostion Common. However, after setting up my tripod, tourists kept coming out of nowhere to this water fountain, playing with water just in front of me, especially kids. It took almost 20 minutes to complete all the shots I wanted.

這裡是波士頓有名的「自由步道」的起點 --- 波士頓公園。背景有著金色圓頂的建築是「麻州議會」。當天正逢周末，遊客眾多；正當我架設好腳架準備拍照時，總是有頑皮的小孩會擋在我面前玩水，我等了20分鐘才等到一個沒有人在玩水的空檔，拍下這張照片。

[Daily Photo] Batting practice at Fenway Park before game start / 芬威球場的賽前練習

I went to my first Major League Baseball (MLB) game at Fenway Park (in Boston, Massachusetts), America's oldest working Major League ballpark, which is 100 years old. I came into Fenway Park 2 hours before the game started to take photos before it was too crowded. It was a day game and the weather was perfect. This photo was taken from outfield seats.

我來到波士頓的芬威球場來體驗我的第一場美國職棒大聯盟比賽。我在開賽前2小時就進到球場，趁著人潮尚未擁擠四處拍照。今年是芬威球場100歲的生日，是大聯盟目前尚在服役中最老的球場。

[Daily Photo] Beautiful rainbow at sunset / 夕陽下的彩虹

There was a thunderstorm in the late evening. After a while, I found there was a huge rainbow in the sky. I rushed out of my house and took this photo. I have seen many rainbows in my life, but none of them were at sunset like today. I was astonished by the beautiful orange color of sunet and the clearness of the rainbow.

你可能看過很多次彩虹，但你不一定有在夕陽下欣賞彩虹的經驗。今天傍晚下了大雷雨。雷雨過後，我在屋內抬頭望向窗外，竟發現一彎彩虹掛在天際。我立刻拿起相機衝出屋外拍了這張照片。因為剛下過雨，天空中水氣充沛，所以彩虹十分明顯；再加上夕陽餘暉的照映，整個天空美的不像真的。

[Daily Photo] Inside Rackham Graduate School Building

This is the lobby of Rackham Graduate School Building, located on Central Campus of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. I love exploring such beautiful buildings like this one. My favorite part of this photo is the colorful crossbeams of the ceiling.

這是密西根大學瑞克漢學院的大廳。屋頂色彩繽紛的橫樑令我聯想到東方宮殿的雕樑畫棟。

[Daily Photo] Sunset near Undergraduate Science Building

I was taking sunset photos on Central Campus of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor near the Power Plant. The building on the left is Undergraduate Science Building and the tallest building in the background is North Quad. However, I didn't anticipate that most of sunset colors were blocked by the buildings in the background.

這一天傍晚我來到密西根大學中校區的發電廠附近拍夕陽。出乎我意料之外，這一區背景建築物多又高，把大部分我想拍的夕照都擋住了。

[Daily Photo] Wooden bridge in North Bay Park / 北灣公園的木橋

I took this photo at North Bay Park in Ypsilanti, Michigan. The bridge connected to a long and narrow trail on the lake. The view on the trail is really astonishing.

沐浴在陽光中的木橋真是美極了，木橋的另一端連接著一條狹長的步道。(拍攝於密西根州福特湖旁的北彎公園。)

[Daily Photo] Tennis courts on Central Campus at twilight / 暮光下的網球場

I was on Central Campus of the University of Michigan near Palmer Field. There are  tennis courts near the busy Washtenaw Ave. The empty courts with colorful night scene on the background just looked amazing.

拍攝於密西根大學的中校區。無人的網球場與背景五彩繽紛的街景形成強烈的對比。

[Daily Photo] Inside the blacksmith's shop / 古老的打鐵舖內

This photo was taken inside the Cotswold Forge at Greenfield Village (located in Dearborn, Michigan). The Forge was built in Snowshills, England in the Cotswold region in the 1600s, and was reconstructed in the Greenfield Village in 1931. Blacksmiths made and repaired iron tools in this Forge. You can see how many tools they had for blacksmithing.

在密西根州的綠野村內有一間重建的英國古老打鐵舖。看了才知道原來鐵匠的工具這麼多，光是火鉗就有好幾種。

[Daily Photo] Bee and peony 2 / 蜂與芍藥

I posted a photo of "Bee and peony" two weeks ago. This is another photo I took on the same day. Although the bee is smaller than the one in the previous photo, it still match perfectly with the peony.

兩星期前我發表過一張「蜜蜂與牡丹花」的照片，這張照片也是同一天拍攝的。照片中的蜜蜂雖然比前一張的小，卻也不失風采。上網查了資料才發現原來「芍藥」和「牡丹」英文都是同一個字peony。二者的不同之處在於牡丹是木本植物，長的像樹；而芍藥是早本植物，沒有明顯的樹幹。所以牡丹的英文也有人稱為tree peony.

[Daily Photo] Stockwell Hall at night

This is Stockwell Hall located on central campus of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. It is a dormitory for students. The mosaic decoration on the wall looks more beautiful at night than in the day.

[Daily Photo] Stephen M. Ross School of Business

This is the Stephen M. Ross School of Business, one of my favorite buildings in Ann Arbor. The interior of the building is as amazing as its outside. I am planning to .
take some interior photos in the future.

密西根大學商學院大樓，在安娜堡我最喜歡的建築之一。

[Daily Photo] Law Library and Business School at dusk / 法律圖書館與商學院

This photo was taken on Central Campus at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. The building at the bottom is the Law Library, which was built underground. The building on the top is the Stephen M. Ross School of Business, which is the business school of the University of Michigan. I also have posted other photos of Law Library and Ross School of Business.

我在密西根大學的中校區拍到這張有趣的照片。照片下方是蓋在地下的法律圖書館；畫面上方的建築是非常漂亮的商學院。(這裡有我以前張貼的法圖和商學院的照片)

[Daily Photo] Inside the Ford home / 亨利福特的家

I was in the replicated house of Henry Ford in Greenfield Village (in Dearborn, Michigan). The famous Henry Ford was born in this house. When I was visiting this house, two enthusiastic older ladies dressed in the style of 300 years ago acted as tour guides.

在密西根州的綠野村裡有一間亨利福特的家(重製的)。當時屋內沒有其他遊客，卻有兩個穿著古裝的老婦人在閒聊，著實把我嚇了一大跳。霎時間我以為我闖進不對外開放參觀的地方，後來才知道她們原來是負責在屋內導覽的員工，她們熱心地向我介紹這間房子的歷史。

[Daily Photo] Colorful terraces in Mammoth Hot Springs, Yellowstone / 黃石公園內的彩色梯田

This photo was taken in Mammoth Hot Springs of Yellowstone National Park. What I like about these terraces is that they are actually living things. The water of hot springs breed numerous lives.

此照片拍攝於美國黃石公園內的猛瑪溫泉區。我喜歡這些梯田的原因是他們其實是活的，有無數的生命孕育在火山的溫泉水中。

[Daily Photo] Henry Ford Academy / 亨利福特學院

This is the Henry Ford Academy (in Dearborn, Michigan) just beside the Henry Ford Museum. What beautiful architecture.

[Daily Photo] Bee and peony / 蜜蜂與牡丹花

I took this photo at the Peony Garden of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. I used a shutter speed of 1/2000 sec to capture this photo. To achieve this, I set the ISO up to 640. I took many photos of this busy bee collecting nectar, and this is my favorite one. It was flying toward another flower.

密西根大學的牡丹花園內百花齊放，我在園中追著蜜蜂拍照。這枝蜜蜂正採完花蜜，飛向下一個目的地。

[Daily Photo] Beautiful tree beside the trail / 小徑旁美麗的樹木

I found this beautiful tree while I was walking along the trail in Matthaei Botanical Gardens (in Ann Arbor, Michigan). I am really satisfied with the composition of this photo. The location of the tree fits the "Rule of Thirds"; the trail on the foreground extends to the back of the tree; the location of the red barn at the background is also great.

此照片於密西根大學植物花園內的小徑上拍攝。我很滿意這張照片的構圖。大樹的位置符合井字構圖原則；小徑由前方延伸至大樹後方；遠方的紅色穀倉給照片增添了鮮艷的色彩。

[Daily Photo] Antique lathe / 古董車床

I took this photo of an old lathe (a machine tool) in Thomas Edison's Menlo Park Machine Shop in Greenfield Village (located in Dearborn, Michigan). There are many antique machines preserved in Greenfield Village and some are still working. Items in the Village such as signs are made by these old machines.

此照片拍攝於密西根州的綠野村，亨利福特集團在這裡保存了許多古老的機械。讓我覺得有趣的是，這些東西不僅僅是被保存下來而已，許多工具都還正在使用中。村中的工人刻意使用這些老機械來製造村中的東西，例如路牌。

[Daily Photo] Beautiful Peonies in Peony Garden / 牡丹花園內的花海

Today I went to the University of Michigan Peony Garden (in Ann Arbor, Michigan). The Peonies are in full bloom now. It was really hard to do HDR photography on this windy day because the flower just would't stand still long enough. I tried my best to process this photo from one single shot.

此照片拍攝於密西根大學的牡丹花園。

[Daily Photo] Small houses for Fairies and Trolls / 小精靈和地精的小屋

This place is Fairy Woods & Troll Hollow in Nichols Arboretum (in Ann Arbor, Michigan) where Fairies and Trolls roam in this forest. People built these small houses at the bottom of tree trunks for them. See if you can find any Fairies or Trolls in this photo.

密西根大學的植物園內有一處名為妖精森林的地方。在這裡人們在樹幹根部用樹枝搭建起一間間的小屋，希望給守護森林的精靈們一個溫暖的家。

[Daily Photo] A cute horse lying on the ground / 可愛的馬

This photo of a beautiful horse lying on the ground was taken at Domino's Petting Farm in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The horse was going to stand up so it stretched its forelegs to the front. Its hair style was so cute.

我在達美樂農場遇見這一匹駿馬，他的髮型好像櫻桃小丸子裡的花輪。他正伸直了前腳，準備站起身來。

[Daily Photo] Enid A. Haupt Garden behind the Smithsonian Castle / 史密森尼城堡的後花園

I was visiting the Smithsonian Castle in Washington DC. There is a beautiful garden behind the Castle. Note that using a tripod to take photos is prohibited in this place. On the left side of this photo you can find the Washington Monument behind a tree.

此照片拍攝於美國華盛頓特區內的史密森尼城堡的後花園。於照片左側可以看到遠方的華盛頓紀念碑。

[Daily Photo] Rhododendron along the trail / 小徑旁的杜鵑花

This photo was taken at the Peony Garden in Nichols Arboretum (in Ann Arbor, Michigan). The peonies were not yet in full bloom when I visited the Peony Garden; however, various colors of Rhododendron (Boule de Neige) were blooming along the trail located at the edge of the Peony Garden.

我到密西根大學的牡丹花園，想拍盛開中的牡丹花。沒想到牡丹花全都含苞待放，倒是一旁小徑上五顏六色的杜鵑花已然綻放了。這種杜鵑花跟我們台灣的杜鵑花長的不太一樣，連在台大看了十年杜鵑花的我都沒認出來。

[Daily Photo] Beautiful country field / 鄉野美景

This country field photo was taken in Greenfield Village (in Dearborn, Michigan). I like the cloud in the center of this photo which is like a flower blooming in the sky.

密西根州的鄉野美景，空中的雲朵像是一朵盛開中的花。

[Daily Photo] Conservatory in Matthaei Botanical Gardens / 花園中的溫室

This is the Conservatory of the University of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens (in Ann Arbor, Michigan). The Botanical Gardens was a very educational place. You can get to know all kinds of plants by visiting the indoor greenhouse or outdoor gardens. Click here to see the photo inside the Conservatory.

此照片拍攝於密西根大學的植物花園。請按這裏觀賞溫室內的照片。

[Daily Photo] Hill Dining Center at dusk

I was at the back of Mosher-Jordan Hall of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. The beautiful place in this photo is Hill Dining Center, whose upper level is open until late at night.

[Daily Photo] Question Mark Buttterfly / 長尾鈎蛺蝶

I saw this Question Mark (Polygonia interrogationis) Butterfly while I was walking along a trail in Matthaei Botanical Gardens of the University of Michigan (in Ann Arbor, Michigan). I was lucky to find it because when it closed its wings, it looked exactly like a dry leaf. I tried really hard to find one with its wings closed, but I never succeeded.

我在野外的步道上遇見這一隻長尾鈎蛺蝶，其實他是一種枯葉蝶。我很想也順便拍一張翅膀合起來的照片，但是我怎麼樣都找不到，他的擬態實在太厲害了。

[Daily Photo] Firehole River in Black Sand Basin, Yellowstone / 黃石公園的火洞河

This beautiful place is Black Sand Basin of Yellowstone National Park. The small river is named Firehole River, which refers to not only the abundant hot springs along the river, but also the big forest fire that burned this area.

此照片拍攝於黃石公園的黑沙盆地。照片中的河流為火洞河，名稱來自於許久前的森林大火，以及河岸處處可見流入河中的滾燙溫泉。

[Daily Photo] Palmer Commons at dusk / 傍晚的街景

I went to Central Campus of the University of Michigan at sunset to take some night photos. I found this colorful street block when I was exploring the area near Palmer Field. The street in front of me is Washtenaw Ave, and the beautiful building is Palmer Commons. I was expecting to see many buildings with bright interior lights just like this one, but it ended up that most of the buildings were dark at this moment. I think the reason may be that it was already after the business hours. It was 9:20 PM when I took this photo. I guess winter may be the best time for taking night photos because sunset starts really early.

我在黃昏時刻到了密西根大學的中校區拍照。這裡是市中心，我預期可以拍到很多明亮的建築，就像照片中的一樣。但是事與願違，大部分的建築都黑漆漆的，僅有少數窗戶透出燈光。我想是因為已過了下班時間，只有少數人還留在建築內。所以有些照片要在冬天才有機會拍到，這裡冬天下午5點就天黑了，那時大家都還在上班。

[Daily Photo] Steam train at Greenfield Village / 懷舊蒸汽火車

This photo of a steam train was taken at the Firestone Station in Greenfield Village (in Dearborn, Michigan), a historical village owned by The Henry Ford. You can buy a pass to take a ride on this train which loops around Greenfield Village.

此照片拍攝於美國密西根州亨利福特集團所屬的Greenfield Village。照片中的蒸汽火車為遊園列車，需要額外購票才能乘坐。



I also took the following two videos of this steam train using my Nikon D7000 camera. I hope you will like it!
下面兩段影片式蒸汽火車在園中行駛的實況(使用我的Nikon D7000錄製)。

[Daily Photo] Flowers of Calliandra haematocephala / 美麗的朱櫻花

This is Calliandra haematocephala and its flowers. The furry flower looks like a pink sea urchin on the tree branch. I took this photo in the greenhouse of Matthaei Botanical Gardens (in Ann Arbor, Michigan).

朱櫻花，又叫紅絨球。像極了長在樹上的紅色的海膽。

[Daily Photo] Duderstadt Center at dusk in spring / 春季校園夜景

I went to North Campus of the University of Michigan at sunset to take photos. While I was rushing from one place to another, I passed by Duderstadt Center and was astonished by its beauty at night. I stopped to grab this photo and continued to my next destination. Click here to see the Duderstadt Center in winter.

此照片中的建築為密西根大學北校區的圖書館(Duderstadt Center)，仔細觀察可以發現三樓有一個人正在K書。薄暮下的天空、燈光下的花朵，明亮的室內，搭配起來真是美極了。我正好有一張圖書館冬天的夜景照，請按這裡收看。

[Daily Photo] Crab apple blossoms in front of Lurie Engineering Center / 校園盛開的蘋果花

This photo was taken in front of Lurie Engineering Center (located on North Campus, the University of Michigan) when the crab apple trees were in full bloom. Sometimes it's hard to tell the difference between cherry and crab apple blossoms. But I guessed these trees were crab apple trees because they were in full bloom when the cherry blossoms had already withered. Please leave me a comment if I am wrong.

此照片拍攝於密西根大學的北校區。酸蘋果花和櫻花十分相像，我不太會分辨。查了很多資料，由花期來推測是酸蘋果花，因為拍這張照片的時候，櫻花都已經凋謝了。

[Daily Photo] Long trail on Ford Lake / 福特湖上狹長的步道

I took this photo from an observation deck in North Bay Park, Ypsilanti, Michigan. You can see this amazing long and narrow trail on the lake. Beautiful willow trees were planted along the trail.

湖中狹長的步道上遍植柳樹，形成獨特的景致。

[Daily Photo] Magnolia blossom outside the window / 窗外的木蘭花

There is a beautiful magnolia tree in the back of my house. The tree was in full bloom at the end of March because it blooms earlier than most other trees.  However, the temperature suddenly dropped (I believed it was below the freezing point) on the night which I took this photo. The next day I found that the blossoms were all withered (They all turned brown). It was really a pity.

我家後門外有一株木蘭花。在初春其他樹都還未開花前，木蘭花已悄悄的綻開了。就在我拍完這張照片的當晚，氣溫突然陡降。隔天早上起床一看，木蘭花全都被凍枯在樹枝上了。實在令人惋惜，這大概就是所謂「好花不常開，好景不常在。」吧!

[Daily Photo] Beautiful Higan Cherry in Alex Dow Field / 原野中的櫻花樹

I went to Nichols Arboretum of the University of Michigan many times. This is my favorite spot in the Arboretum which is at Alex Dow Field. There is a huge Higan Cherry tree (Prunus subhirtella). When in the spring, the beautiful cherry blossoms catch everyone's eye.

拍攝於密西根大學的植物園內，這是我春天在園中最喜歡的景點。

[Daily Photo] Small river flowing toward the city / 流往城市的小河

I was in Arlington, Virginia, near Arlington Cemetery Metro Station. There is a small river flowing toward the city. I took this photo from a bridge. I like the cyan color of the river surface reflected from the sky.

拍攝於美國維吉尼亞州阿靈頓。

[Daily Photo] Port Huron Steam Engine / 農用蒸汽引擎

I went to Greenfield Village next to the Henry Ford Museum (in Dearborn, Michigan) last week. They collect and preserve many old-time agricultural equipment in the village just like this one -- the Port Huron Steam Engine, a steam-power tractor made by the Port Huron Engine & Thresher Company. It can generate from 19 - 65 horsepower. Farmers used it to power their machine or pull/push farm equipment.

在汽油引擎尚未普及前，美國農夫使用這種蒸氣引擎來拖曳或驅動大型農具。此照片拍攝於密西根州亨利福特集團所屬的Greenfield Village。



I found the following footage on YouTube from Captkordite showing how this engine works.
下面這段影片可看到此引擎實際運作的樣子。

[Daily Photo] On the road to the hill / 駛向坡頂

I took this photo at Arborcrest Cemetery (in Ann Arbor, Michigan). It is a really quiet and beautiful memorial park near North Campus of the University of Michigan. The car in this photo was in fact parked on the road, but it looked like it was driving uphill. When I took this picture, I thought the car will ruin the photo. However, now I think it looks pretty good to have a car in this photo.

照片中的車子其實是停在路邊，不過在照片中看起來像是正在行駛，整體看來效果還不錯。

[Daily Photo] Pierpont Commons at dusk / 薄暮的校園一角

The building in this photo is Pierpont Commons, the University of Michigan's student union on North Campus. It was 9:00 PM when I took this photo. I really love the deep blue color of the sky. However, it only lasted for about 10 minutes. Then the sky turned into black.

此照片拍攝於密西根大學的北校區。拍攝時間為晚上9點，天空正要由深藍轉黑。這令人目眩神迷的深藍天空只維持了約10分鐘，在我趕到下一個拍攝點前天色已轉為全黑。

[Daily Photo] Rainbow over a waterfall in Yellowstone / 黃石公園瀑布上的彩虹

There are two major waterfalls on the Yellowstone River in Yellowstone National Park —  Upper Falls (109 feet) and Lower Falls (308 feet). Upper Falls is upstream of Lower Falls. I took this photo from the top of the Upper Falls, where a beautiful rainbow appeared on the waterfall.

此照片拍攝於美國黃石公園的「上瀑布」。由瀑布頂端向下俯瞰，可以看見一彎美麗的彩虹。

[Daily Photo] Nuremberg Frauenkirche, Germany / 德國紐倫堡聖母教堂

I took this photo in Nuremberg, Germany. The building, Church of Our Lady (Frauenkirche in German) is an example of brick Gothic architecture. The clock of the church is called "Männleinlaufen", a mechanical clock installed in 1509 showing the Holy Roman Emperor with the prince-electors surrounding him.

德國紐倫堡的聖母堂，典型的哥德式磚式建築。

[Daily Photo] Inside the Henry Ford Museum / 亨利福特博物館內

This photo was taken inside the Henry Ford Museum (in Dearborn, Michigan). Seeing the exhibition inside is like seeing the whole of automotive history. I chose a small aperture (F/8.0) which not only helped me to get the large depth of field, but also created the cool "star burst" effect to the light source. The drawback is, in this circumstance, the shutter speed will be very slow. Therefore, I suggest using a tripod to prevent blurring.

此照片拍攝於美國亨利福特博物館。走進館中猶如欣賞一場汽車的演化史。我使用小光圈(F/8.0)拍攝，讓我可以取得大景深，另外在燈光的地方還可以有星芒的效果。不過缺點是館中的光線昏暗，必須使用腳架才能在小光圈下成功的拍攝照片。

[Daily Photo] Sunset on a small pond on North Campus / 夕陽與小池塘

This photo was taken on North Campus of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. I planned to take some sunset photos that day, so I went to the School of Music at 8:00 pm. This was the first spot on my schedule. In the foreground is a small pond with beautiful reflections from the sky and the shore. The building in the background is Earl. V. Moor Building, whose appearance is designed to look like piano keys.

此照片拍攝於密西根大學的北校區。這天我專程在晚上8點左右來校園拍攝夕陽，不過當天的夕陽並不壯觀。最好看的大概就是照片中的時候了。照片中的建築為音樂系系館，系館的外觀刻意被設計成像鋼琴鍵一般(看到那黑鍵了嗎?)

[Daily Photo] Beautiful trail on Ford Lake / 通往湖中的步道

This photo was taken at North Bay Park in Ypsilanti, Michigan. The park has a very long, narrow trail leading into Ford Lake. The view from the trail is magnificent. I can't wait  until winter to see the whole lake surface frozen.
By the way, I met a photographer in this park. He was carrying binoculars and a Nikon camera with a really huge 500 mm telephoto lens. I had a brief chat with him. He was taking photos of birds, and he told me what kind of birds I could find in the park. It was my first time that I met another photographer in Michigan.

此照片拍攝於美國密西根州Ypsilanti市的北灣公園。公園中有一條狹長的步道跨越福特湖的一角。步道旁栽滿了柳樹，壯闊的景象美不勝收。我在公園中還遇到了一位鳥類攝影師，背著長長的鏡頭和望遠鏡。他向我介紹了幾種在公園內能拍到的鳥類(很遺憾名稱我全部聽不懂)。第一次在異鄉遇到攝影同好，感覺還滿不錯的。

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

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 Bell Tower in early spring / 初春的鐘塔

The building in this photo is Ann and Robert H. Lurie Tower, a well-known landmark of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. This photo was taken on an early spring evening. Click here to see this beautiful bell tower in winter.

此鐘塔為密西根大學的著名的地標，拍攝時間為初春。(我另有一張在冬天拍的鐘塔，請按這裏。)

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

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)。
