Fotos On the Fly – Marymount College Dome

I was able to snap this shot of the Marymount “dome” early this afternoon while driving around the Tarrytown Lakes.  The dome is something of a landmark for the area and although the college campus has changed hands twice, the original campus buildings remain.   Even though I pass by the building several times a week, I’ve never been able to get  that great capture of the dome.  Not that I haven’t tried before.  But I never seemed to have the right angle on a clear day.  So here it is – at long last.

Nice picture, Ruthmarie.  I drove by there the other day, too.  Nice area.  You should add this to Pinterest.

Hi Debbie, I've tried to get a good shot of this for a while now.  Either I was in too much of a hurry or the light was wrong. If the sun is in the wrong position, it hits the dome  that really reflects it with glare.  So this day, the stars were aligned. I did put it on Pinterest.

Hi Kristin,

Its a great area with lots of hills, very scenic.  I had tried to get a really nice capture, and it was strangely difficult to do. 

 

Hi William, 

Although our area is beautiful - clear days are rare right now.  Rain, rain, rain.  But it just seemed that whenever I was within range it was later in the day and the sun was hittng the dome in such a way that you really couldn't get a good shot.

Ruthmarie, what a great photo of the Marymount College Dome, I remember the students  from Marymount used to visit us when I went to school at USMA.
