Identify that Letter! Part 1: El Camino College

This is one of the capital O-shaped bike racks that can be found in front of the Administration Building in El Camino. As one can see, it is quite bigger than a wheel of a standard bicycle; hence, because of its large size, it qualifies to be an object that can be identified as an uppercase letter “O.” Its proportioned roundness perfectly epitomizes the shape of an “O.” Also, it is a noticeable object due to its bright cream color.

Together, these objects (perhaps tiny manholes) on a grassy plane in front of the Administration Building form a lowercase letter “I.” If people were to scrutinize these objects as a whole, they will realize that the combination of a column of three squares (though it was actually four total) and a circle on top can create a lowercase “I.” Overall, it is fascinating to see how the assemblage of several objects can take shape of a giant letter.

If an individual was to examine it more carefully, this peculiar-shaped metal pipe structure close to the El Camino library definitely resembles a lowercased letter “N.” Unfortunately, its rusty texture renders it quite unnoticeable and a passerby can easily overlook it. It seems that the only redeemable feature that causes this object to stand out is its shape. The slight curvy part on the top right of the object is what allows it to be identified as a lowercased “N.”   

This capital U-shaped object is actually a pedestal (foot) of a construction fence that was set up in El Camino (that is, if the pedestal was split in half). Usually, pedestals of construction fences are easy to overlook – after all, they are objects that primarily function as bases that make fences stand up straight. The striking feature of this object are the curves at its bottom edges that help justify it being identified as a capital "U."
