After the game



Usually after a long day of football, the last thing I want to do is take more photos. (The first thing is generally food+cable tv at the hotel.) But we just got new cameras (bright shiny 1Dxs for everyone!), and what better way to test it out then to wander a strange college campus late at night? The first photo is the same scene photographed 12 hours earlier in the previous post.
