From Michigan to Florida, Paris to Rome and more, ������ employees captured memories of some of the most interesting places, people and things from their local and international trips. e-Inside is sharing some of their photos in this final feature for 2018.

Please note that photo submissions are no longer being accepted. 

 

Pratim Datta, Ph.D., College of Business Administration, shot
this photo in Masai Mara, Kenya. He says, "A lion pride had just
made a kill in the African savannah and the feeding was frenzied. 
Unable to secure a bite after some trying, the lion cub returned to
the mom and rested, knowing that she would provide for him. I
thought that the picture was moving and poignant."
 

The Palouse shot, submitted by Pratim Datta, was taken in the
high desert of Washington State. Dr. Datta says, “Once hard and
arid, the volcanic ashes from Mt. St Helens' eruption changed the
landscape and made it fecund. As I was driving on a day smitten
with scattered clouds, the lone barn standing in the middle of the
Palouse with floating clouds like cotton-balls looked like a playful
���DZ����ٳܻ��.”
 

������ employees, Sierra Baker, health educator with the
Office of Health Promotion, and Chris Baker, associate director,
Recreational Services, had a wonderful vacation with their kids at
Ocean Isle Beach, North Carolina. Mrs. Baker says the kids loved
the surf and sand.
