Off the beaten path<br />
Randy Landicho<br />
As a photographer, fall is my favourite time of year at UTM. The campus looks<br />
beautiful year-round, but fall is when the foliage screams “Look at me!” Even just<br />
taking a stroll on the Five-Minute Walk becomes a treat once the fiery colours<br />
come out. I enjoy taking photos at UTM because even after eight years here, I still<br />
discover new places and find new angles to shoot. This photo is a great example of<br />
a spot I found only recently—in the woods beside the CCT Building. To me, it<br />
captures the essence of the natural setting of the UTM campus. It pays to walk off<br />
the beaten path.<br />
