The Harvard Coop (pronounced like a chicken coop, not “co-op”) is the bookstore for Harvard University and something of an institution in its own right. A friend and I visited this past summer and made some images. The last image is of Harvard Square from a second-floor window.

Nice images Chris !!

Love the stairs!
Thank you…I spent a lot of time on that shot. Cheers!
Nice mug shot. Had fun there even though it’s a rival school π
Thanks Teri. That’s right, DH went to MIT. Oh well, I got some great shots there this summer also. Cheers!
Harvard and MIT. Love the photos. Simple pleasures of a day in a book store. You’ve got me thinking. My family and I did this one afternoon in a Barnes and Noble, now I may have to share and not feel like “surely we’re not the only ones who could have this much fun in a book store”!
I love bookstores and wandering through them. Thank you so much. Cheers
the flags in the first one are like from the Harry Potter books π
great shots, the staircase looks awesome…
Thank you, Alex. I spent freaking forever on that staircase and made a dozen images with this one coming out best. Cheers
