These photos were taken in Late August of 1985 from my dorm room (Cross Center) at the University of Oklahoma looking to the north. Camera was a Minolta SRT-101 with 100 ASA film , fstop at 22 and the shutter was open for 60 seconds. The tall structure on the right is Owen Stadium and the more distant tower near the lightning bolt is the Physical Health Sciences Center.
