The front of a building identified as “Heidelberg College,” Heidelberg, Germany

To answer likely the first question, this is not Heidelberg University, a very old and very highly regarded institution. As near as I can tell it isn’t even related to the University, though information about a “Heidelberg College” in this town is sparse. (One source suggests that it might be a high school or similar, though I’m not sure about that.) The building was along our typical walking route to the old town section of Heidelberg, and the orderly appearance and combination of colors had caught my attention the first time we passed.

For those of you sitting on the fence about getting a copy of Adobe Lightroom, you might think about acting now – B&H is offering Lightroom at 50% off for 24 hours only. Unless you have access to the academic pricing, this is as low as I’ve seen the price go.

Photograph of a building wall with crack and black windows, sidewalk, and no parking sign.

This is another of those photographs that probably seems intended to perplex and baffle those who like my landscape and nature photography. (If it helps, think of it as an urban landscape.) The photograph was made not far from my home on a midday walk with my camera and a single prime lens. I shot the series from which this comes at what is usually regarded as the worst time of day for photography – close to the noon hour about a week or so before the summer solstice. And I did this on purpose! I think that any light can be good light if it is the light you want to photograph. So the game on this day was to go out and see what I could do with very harsh and bright light.
