Purdue has many outfits, but my favorite one to photograph has to be campus covered in a blanket of fresh snow.

I have never seen it snow this hard for that long during my time at Purdue – I had to go out make some photos.

My transportation is my uncles bike which he used to get around when he went to Purdue a little over 20 years ago.

At points throughout the day, it was hard to see the Bell Tower it was snowing so hard:

I saw countless people get out their phones and snap a quick photo on the way to wherever they were going. I had to make at least one good photo to show:

The next day after the snow had fallen, it was a beautifully sunny day. Had to go up to Folk, Alexander, and Bittinger to check out the view:

Folk Field looks great covered in a fresh blanket of snow. Looking forward to the fall!
