 Dubois Library on the campus of UMass in Amherst, MA, USA. The sun kept ducking behind clouds and I had a lot of light/dark picutes to choose from. I really like this angle, but who know what the voters will like. 24mm on zoom.

Looks like something out of a magazine. Almost like a cartoon. The colors are nice and a nice centering. 9.
