In Irvine we caught only the edge of an 'atmospheric river' that drenched northern California, but enough rain fell overnight to make for some good photos the next mrning. And a few days later, a dense morning fog.
The fountain in the Social Sciences Plaza had been dry throughout the covid pandemic shutdown -
but now it is running again...

An unusually ferocious thunderstorm on Monday night took out power to the campus for several hours; but the downpour left nice reflecting pools when the sky cleared the next morning.
And the wet ground accentuated lightshafts from the rising sun

August 22, 2021: A light rain on Saturday morning enticed me to the UCI rose garden.
[After taking these photos I discovered a paper describing that rose petals exhibit a super- hydrophobic state with high adhesive force that stops raindrops from rolling off.]
And a UCI compass rose

August 10th, 2021 - early morning walk around campus
August 3rd, 2021 - back to wearing a mask at UCI with surging delta variant. Some miscellaneous photos, some looking down.
July 16th, 2021 - mostly looking up with a wide-angle lens.
The academic buildings had been locked throughout the covid pandemic with key-card access only for those researchers working in a building. Last week arrangements started to return to normal, with buildings unlocked during the day. One building I had particularly hankered to get into was the Engineering Hall, with its glass-enclosed stairway supported by a spectacularly orange framework and topped by an orange inverted Vee structure.
