Procrastinating in my Reg cubicle by going through old photos. #throwback to O-Week earlier this school year, when we took the first years to the Point for the first time! Feels just like yesterday. And I can't believe I'm going to be halfway through with college in 3 hours. #unreal #uchicago #fall #sun (at 57th Street Beach Chicago)

Margriet Smulders  - Siren Ink - Siren Milk 2010

Dutch photographer Margriet Smulders accomplished that feat in Botanicals Mirabilis, an abbreviated survey of larger-than- life floral photography at Hagedorn Gallery in Atlanta’s Buckhead district.
