Note: I received this excellent -- except that it turned out to be spam (since deleted) -- comment in Russian (translated by Babelfish):

Yes even not only hens, but generally entire bird, which it will see.

PVC and Sky #1

T. Renner, "PVC and Sky #1," 2009, digital photograph.

Driving by Washington University's campus a few weeks ago I noticed a group of interesting structures on the corner of Skinker and Forsyth. Unfortunately, I didn't get around to taking any photos until after the leaves had lost their beautiful read and gold colors. Still, I think this photo works well in black and white.

It turns out the structures are the work of students in Arny Nadler's 3D design class at Washington University.

From the web site of the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum:

Georgia O'Keeffe was born on November 15, 1887, the second of seven children, and grew up on a farm in Sun Prairie, Wisconsin. As a child she received art lessons at home, and her abilities were quickly recognized and encouraged by teachers throughout her school years. By the time she graduated from high school in 1905, O'Keeffe had determined to make her way as an artist.
