Old Main, Penn State University Park Campus. Built between 1857 and 1863 (rebuilt in the 1920s). I think that this meets the challenge, though it requires some thought, hopefully won't hurt it too bad.. I'm really happy with this shot.

There's a ver strong sense of a tilted horizon here - although some of that is an illusion. I'd personally have done something, or gone further, to reduce the difference of light between the building and the sky. A nicely composed image, though - especially like the light on the side of the tower - a shame you couldn't have caught the whole building in that light. It's good to see someone shooting at a sensible time of day :-)

Beautiful light of sun... but not sure if i would took it in same angle.

As a fellow Penn Stater, I must say this is one of the prettiest shots I've seen of Old Main in quite a while.

This isi a really beautiful picture. But iI'm not seeing too clear a connection _in the picture_ to the challenge..

This one has great composition. The color is a bit flat, but it helps to promote the feeling of winter. The connection to the challenge seems a bit weak to me, but I think this challenge was a bit challenging. 7.

Something old is not time passing

Without the title this is just a picture of a building.
Not really sure what to think.
