Thank you so much for your comments/favs that helped my posts yesterday visit PP briefly! I took this from one end of the portico in the color version of the full building in yesterday's post. One of my favorite buildings in the city to photograph.

@salza I think living in Chicago is what led to the 'style' I eventually developed in my photography. I can't go for a walk anywhere without seeing form and structure!
I love this and much prefer it to the colour image. I think the elimination of the blue sky in this version helps me to see the lines and shadows even clearer - does that make sense? Fav!
One of my favourite kinds of architecture. Last year we visited Berlin and went to the 1936 Olympic Stadium, which is also a pillared walkway design at the outer edges. Just wonderful. The repeating patterns always appeal to me. (Maybe to the bits of me that wishes I were ordered and tidy but am so not!!)
It is always interesting to see another photographers perspective. I have so many shots taken from here, but I find the street photographer part of me has me angling towards the doors, or a more central view waiting for that person to pop out into my shot. I really like this angle, great shadows!
Brilliant perspective shot, Taffy. This is reminiscent of Sydney's Central Station portico. Chicago's is about 20 years younger though...they still built them to last :)
