In the City: Chicago

This is the view from inside the Modern Wing of the Art Institute of Chicago, looking across Millennium Park to "Streeterville" and beyond to the Magnificent Mile. It was a beautiful day after what felt like weeks of humid, hot, and stormy weather. For the new theme, In the City (here's the URL to the theme description: http://365project.org/discuss/themes-competitions/26318/new-competition-in-the-city ).

@olivetreeann Funny...based on the comments, I like your idea of an orb -- and find it interesting that now I think it could have been titled "Trapped" or "Caged" or something along those lines. At least an orb is a happy thing.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@taffy How about "If Chicago was a Paperweight"... (it would look like this!)

[Taffy]

@olivetreeann Love it!

[Kane Arlow]

This is awesome. It certainly does look like Chicago is in jail :)

[Taffy]

@jyokota I am still using the borrowed once since it's smaller and easier to throw into my bag. I need to force myself to use mine or I'll never get used to it!
