In a quick follow up to my diary on Monday I wanted to post this short article from The Daily Texan, the student-run newspaper published at UT Austin.

Occupy Supply, a national program organized by the blog Firedoglake, raised more than $100,000 to bring supplies to Occupy protests around the country and has given more than 100 items to Occupy Austin, including hats, socks, jackets and blankets.
The article includes this beautiful photo taken by Mary Kang, a Daily Texan staff photographer.

Thanks, Kris. Nice story in the paper and a great picture.
Great follow up and thanks for the update. I try to stay up to date with all the occupies. Sort of hard to do. Recommended.
It really is a wonderful shot. I just spoke with the photographer by phone and told her so. I think it’s gorgeous, almost Gothic in feel.
I do love this photo. Thank you for the follow-up Kris!
The quality of light is amazing! WOOT! Daily Texan, home “town” of Eyebeam and Peaches, Queen of the Universe.
Thanks Kris. Well done.
The emotion in this song captures the feelings I get from this picture.
H/T cbl.
As others have said, that is a stunning photograph. And I love the song you picked to go with it.
Wonderful article. Too bad someone at the Daily Texan article had to chime in and call the occupiers “losers.”
