this guy*
I found this dude hanging out on the William and Mary campus the other day. He seemed to be enjoying the fall weather (as was I), and I assume that he was reflecting upon his own student days there, both as an undergrad and as a law student (whose law professor was Thomas Jefferson).
Or maybe he was thinking about that one time when he was the President of the United States, the way former presidents do.

dizzy
My brain does not like to see things that spin around. Seeing the motion makes it go all mushy on the inside (oddly, the exact feeling that calculus gave me that one awful semester in college).
Even standing on the ground trying to get a photo of the twirl-around ride* made me a little dizzy.

this raises some questions

sea/glass
I started the run of photos from my trip with a sunset, so I guess it makes sense to end with a sunrise…
The way those waves were backlit by the rising sun fascinated me: it reminds me of molten glass. And you can go ahead and relax because I will only post this one image (of the 100 or so that I made of the exact same thing).

ivy league (sort of)
The cemetery chapel was covered with ivy that was just starting to think about putting on its fall reds, which would have been a beautiful display. But, really, I didn’t hate the way it looked when I saw it, and especially liked the way the wavy gold glass was peeking through the leaves.
