Thursday morning I walked out of the Journalism building to look up and see what follows. The military science program does this once a semester, but its the first time I saw it while I had a camera on me.
I’d actually forgotten I’d shot this until my friend Sara Guevara posted her photos of the activity tonight. You can check out her photos by going here.

The sillouette is very nice. The others lack that sense of height.
I would crop the first one in from the right, putting the bottom of the rope into the lower right-hand corner.
