Cornell Univeristy

Driving a fuel-efficient Hybrid Prius, I crossed the boundary between Massachusetts and New York. From Boston, located in east Massachusetts, to Ithaca, New York, the distance is about 380 miles. As long as the route is, it was not boring because I followed Ricky's advice about drive along I-20, which has scenery of lakes and hills.
開著超省油的 Prius,跨越了紐約與麻州的州界。從麻州最東邊的 Boston 開到紐約州 Ithaca,大概有 380 miles。路程雖然長,不過依照 Ricky 的建議走 I-20,欣賞沿路的丘陵湖景風光倒不讓人覺得無聊。

It was at dusk when I arrived at the campus. Thank Jeffery for treating me to a special dinner at the campus buffet.
抵達 Cornell 校園時,已經接近黃昏。感謝 Jeffery 在 Cornell 學生餐廳招待了一頓特別的晚餐。

On the next day, I went to Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art. Though the area is not large, it has a lot of collections of art and is recognized as one of the most important university museums. It's special for me to see some collections from Ming Dynasty and Ching Dynasty.
隔天來到 Herbert F. Johnson 藝術博物館內走一走。館內雖然不大,卻有著很多的收藏,被認為是大學博物館中的重要一員。對我來說特別的是竟然看到一些明清時期的展品。

From the top floor, the campus view is clearer.
從頂樓,可以把校園看得更清楚。

And I was able to see Lake Cayuga, one of the Finger Lakes, from the top floor. It must look more gorgeous when colored by autumn leaves.
當然,在頂樓也能看到五指湖中的 Cayuga 湖。秋天葉子轉紅時,這裡應該會更美吧!

After the museum, I walked around the campus, and saw Fall creek, which separates the campus into two parts. There are certainly a few bridges for transportation across the creek. And this is the lone pedestrian-only suspension bridge among bridges on the campus.
離開博物館,來到校園其他地方走走。Fall creek 這條小溪穿越了校園,因此校園內當然有橋方便通行,而這就是其中唯一的行人吊橋。

From the bridge, a small hydroelectric plane is in sight.
從橋上可以看到小小的水力發電廠

An elegant house in the campus, as in the dream of the garage life.
校園內的優雅房舍,夢中的 garage life.

A house in Tutor style; it casts my mind back to Tiffany's, an excellent restaurant in Christchurch, New Zealand.
一棟都鐸式風格的建築,不過我心裡想到的是紐西蘭的 Tiffany's。

@Rodney
Ithaca 除了很冷以外,真是美翻了!
附近又是湖又是酒莊的
太值得去了.......
不過,Johnson 應該超難申請.......

R-D1s 是因為那幾張照片是當初還在米國就先處理好了丟在 flickr.......要不然那張 Prius's fender 就再也看不到了....



@TOTOPA
您過獎啦~
您對 Rochester 的觀察及對攝影角度的細心
在這邊一定能拍出更好的照片
我只是在有限的時間內走走拍拍
我是設備比較好可以唬唬人是真的

我相信秋天拍起來一定很棒
您那邊有秋天的 Ithaca 嗎?
有的話不妨貼在 blog 讓大家聞香一下
