George Eastman House

I fell in love with the George Eastman House during my freshman year at Alfred University. The home of the Kodak Company founder today houses the International Museum of Photography and Film, and offers expansive gardens and limitless photo ops. It's also Rochester's largest home. The day I took this shot, Rochester was in full bloom -- the annual lilac festival had just happened and the city's parkways and gracious neighborhoods were awash in the first flush of spring.
