nice plain, the shot is a little dark, but lovely and sharp.

@Alun Lambert: I underexposed so that you get a sense of the ambient light along the sidewalks ... taken just after sunrise.

I like the feeling if the dawn breaking. Feels a bit tilted to the right to me. I really like this series!

Wow! this must be some huge university to have planes taking off from the grounds, it would create havoc here, with health and safety and all that, our kids here can't even play conkers in the playground incase someone gets hurt.
A great shot and a brilliant series Ron.

It's great to be able to catch up after the break! This is my favourite of the series, though the others are special too. Love the DOF and exposure settings you have used here - gives the photo a great feel.

cool capture. doesn't look like there's enough space for take off though. looks like it might benefit from a little straightening.
