At Millennium Park, practicing panning. The buildings are not quite blurry enough, but I couldn't follow him for long as there were actually a number of skaters on the rink. Behind the skater is Michigan Avenue. In the spring and summer, the ice rink becomes an outdoor garden restaurant.
Wonderful image Taffy with just the right amount of blur behind the skater. I think this looks more natural as the blur relates to his speed. Looks like fun!! Fav!
Wow, this really looks different as a skating rink. Last I was here it was crowded with tables and chairs and lots of people enjoying a summer evening. Amazing that you were able to get just one picture in the photo.
Wonderful! Just had a long phone chat with Sue Stephenson (365) this afternoon, and she was in the dining room atop the Athletic Club last night and said it was beautiful looking down on the skating rink! I'm delighted to come here and see it for myself!
He is beautifully sharp. I think you're right, the background would be better more blurry. He's skating off to find some of those donuts methinks......
@bella_ss Yes. the rink is part of the city park -- Millennium Park -- which is now the top tourist site in Chicago. Above the rink looking over it is the area of The Bean.
