Stanford University campus. A close-up of of the corners. Most of the buildings on campus are made of "artificial stone" that give the buildings their classic architectural looks with modern construction technology.
Either ultra wide angle lenses were made to take pictures of buildings like this, or buildings like this were designed for ultra wide angle lenses - either way, it is fun taking pictures of buildings like this with wide lenses.
I came away with several photos of these buildings around the main quad, but I did not want to upload them all to flickr. But after agonizing over which ones to upload, I couldn't quite make up my mind, so I'm listing them all, anyway!
Each shows a different way of photographing a building like this with a wide angle lens, so at least, they are all a little different!

For information about using this Leica lens with Nikon cameras, please see this link. I have also created a new set called Leica 19mm Elmarit-R, to which I will keep adding new photos taken with this lens that I upload to flickr.
