The UCLA campus at night...

I wandered around UCLA late last night. The school is on break now so it was pretty deserted, which I like. Here is the gallery:

For me the most interesting were the catwalks in the courtyard of the recently opened California NanoSystems institute. This very interesting building was built so that it partly overhangs one end of Parking Structure 9. It has a big courtyard area -- technically not really a courtyard -- which is criss-crossed by walkways going from one side to another.

Here is one of my more successful shots, standing on the top deck of Parking Structure 9 and looking straight up:

Here is another shot, looking back from a walkway leading from the top deck of Parking Structure 9 to the Bombshelter, skirting the north side of the building:

The upper walkways appear to be accessible only from inside the building so I didn't shoot from any of them.
