SUNDAY POST: Windows to Knowledge

As a student I dreamed of studying on French Sorbonne, but it never happened. Many years later (as in this May)  I had a chance to see it for the first time. I took some crappy photos that I had to over-process to give them soul, but somehow they seemed perfect for Jake’s new theme: Window.

If you look closely at the photos, you’ll see the inscriptions above the windows showing that each window is dedicated to a different faculty department (mathematics, paleontology, mechanics…). I was desperate to find the linguistics, but it seems that those guys are not allowed to see the light of day ;). Happy Sunday everyone!

  9. I think you shot them quite well, and the processing turned them into something a bit more.

    1. Jeff, thank you very much for this nice comment. I’ve noticed you had published weekly challenge but I was busy and work gets busier and more stressful. I want to be calm enough before I go and see it….
