Still in Chicagoland, enjoying the friendship, hospitality and photo opps with 365 friends. This is a view from Hancock Tower, looking west (out to the flatlands of the midwest), taken during twilight, about 95 floors up.
10/1/2020: Finished year 7 (!), with continuing gratitude towards this amazing community. Based in St. Louis, MO. Regular worker-bee and self-taught photography dilettante....
Extraordinary sea of lights to look at, never seen anything like it. This is a wonderful sweeping lightscape shot Rosie. I particularly like the contrast between the vertical lines of the foreground buildings vs the horizontal spread and lines of the middle ground. Those glowing green light on the right form a great anchor point. The shot appeals to me very much. Fav.
Amazing cityscape, a big fave. I just love Chicago. I will be posting a similar shot tomorrow, but of Melbourne town, and a bit lower (88 floors up :) oh yes, and fave.
Brilliant -- this view is special to me as it captures the way Chicago sits on the Plains, where it's flatness seems to go on forever. It's fun to see this in parallel to @pamknowler 's shot looking south.
