I';m currently an assistant professor of Earth Science at Central Connecticut State University - my research interests include the geology of Mars (hence the username!) and infrared remote sensing... and sharing photos of interesting rocks I meet with people I find.

Looking again from Phipps Conservatory - this time after dark (about 7 pm local time).

Looking from the "backyard" of Phipps Conservatory towards the Oakland section of Pittsburgh (including the University of Pittsburgh and UPMC).

One of the model train setups in this part of Phipps - with conveniently timed moving train (the timing did work out really well - the train came around just as the GigaPan moved to the next column....)

OK, I didn't bother to check to see what particular flora is in this photo, but it's part of the Amazon rainforest exhibit at Phipps.

Another view of the koi pond (with all the pictures this time!)

The koi pond in Phipps viewed from a bridge over the top (the fish were less cooperative this time and didn't hang out in the frame...)

Koi in the rainforest exhibit... a few missing photos, unfortunately, but the pan still works...

Some interesting lighted sculpture at Phipps. The lights in the background are from the city itself.
From reading other pan descriptions of the same art piece, the green balls apparently represent the Volvox structure (I'm not a biologist, and I can't remember what that is, though.)

Just thought this was a different way to see some of the greenhouses at Phipps: from the outside area to the south of the building looking north.

Looking onto the main floor of Newell Simon Hall on the Carnegie Mellon campus.
