Thoreau’s Walden: A Journey in Photographs

Night at Walden Pond

3 Quarks Daily brought to my attention a stunning new collection of photographs: “Thoreau’s Walden: A Journey in Photographs” They were taken at Walden Pond, which was where Henry David Thoreau composed his famous book “Walden”.

The full article is Miller’s Walden, published in Harvard University Gazette.

It seems strange to me, for some reason, to think of Thoreau as a Harvard graduate. Perhaps I would rather think of the more humble aspects of the author. Furthermore, I would like to be able to identify with Thoreau, but I never went to Harvard.
