This was my first shot and my favorite of all of them! UM-F is known as the "Riverfront Campus" because it sprawls along the Flint River. This is an eastward look at the river from a footbridge linking the two sides of campus.
Another look east... the footbridge's rails were so high I was afraid I'd drop my camera in the river!
Directly in to the sunset.
I just saw this bit of leaves intertwined with the pine and I thought it was pretty neat.
The last bit of surviving summer flowers, and a plaque I had never noticed before!
A close up of the plaque, after I figured out how to use my camera's "text" function.
I have no idea what these berries are but I thought they were pretty! Darn the wind for making my shot blurry!
The rose garden... looking pretty bare after a few good frosts.
There are these pillar things all over campus, and they're pretty much just for sororities and fraternities to announce themselves to passersby.
I just found this to be funny that even our fire hydrants must be painted maize and blue. Everything screams Wolverine in these parts. :)
This is lovingly referred to as the "psychedelic acid trip fingerprint" by students. They built this plaque/monument thing I believe in 2005, to celebrate the Flint campus' 50th birthday. It was supposed to represent a "new identity in to the millennium." Um, yeah, we just refer to it as the acid trip.
The light didn't reveal how gorgeous these gold leaves were in person!
The corner of Kearsley and Harrison... I just took this shot because I've stood at this corner many, many times waiting to cross to get lunch at the University Pavilion.
The same corner... kind of the "skyline" of the city.
These flags are spaced about 20 feet apart on the parameters of campus... which means you see a LOT of them wherever you are downtown.
