Today was the first day I've been in a high school classroom since I graduated four and a half years ago. I had an assignment to shoot a presentation from a member of the Green Business Task Force speaking with some upperclassmen in an environmental science class about ways how businesses are going green. It was basically the proverbial talking head in a room of uninterested teenagers. I made it interesting though and was pretty pleased with my take, as was the editor-in-chief when he saw my stuff this afternoon. It's always nice to get some kudos when you turn nothing into something.
On my way out I noticed this great shaft of light coming into the hallway. The small repeating windows in the background really helped make the photo. It was begging to be shot so I sat for a few minutes during the passing period until I got something that I liked. The security guard (who checked me in by the way), office staff and dean all harassed me about being there but luckily I made my photo and got her name before I left.
For a random find I'll take it.
