 I thought of this the minute the challenge came out because I have in fact been endlessly procrastinating about taking some college photography courses.

This is Our Lady of the Lake University in San Antonio. Probably not where I would take the photography classes, but it was the prettiest university I could find to represent my procastination :)

Congratulations on a strong photo, Sandy. This had such clarity I thought it had been taken with a 4X5 view camera and scanned in. You don't need to go back to school.

Wow, I was convinced this was European. Love the glow. This would have kicked butt for Postcard too. Nice work!

I think I prefer it with slightly less foreground, but other than that it is a very tranquil setting and you should get there soon!6

Nice simple image, thought-out composition, effective light. Can you tell it doesn't excite me much? After the raft of truly dreadful stuff in this challenge though, it's great to see just a well crafted image.

Very Preppy! You made this campus look so regal! I love how the archetechture of the buildings look up against the colors of the sky and the dreaminess of the water. Excellent composition and clairity. This is just simply BEAUTIFUL!

Very BEAUTIFUL. I'm going to give this a high score...8! Could you bring out some more contrast in the buildings? I know a really good technique for this if you don't already know.

this shot is title dependant, i would have no idea what your trying to show me without the title. i would just think it was a church or castle without the name.
