Life as a Physicist

I’ve long been a fan pictures of things physics. Physics generates some truly spectacular images and is one way to make it more accessible! A few years ago as chair of the awards committee I ran a small photograph contest for members of the department. That was fun. But department level efforts like this are small time.

The APS is currently collecting photos of research to put on their home page. I wish they would publish a picture book of these things - and expand the selection of pictures they currently have up (a history).

BTW, if you want to see a large archive of particle physics pictures you should check out the Fermilab archive of pictures (click on the 5 blocks at the top to select the type of pictures).
