All Aboard for the Trolley Tour by taffy

All Aboard for the Trolley Tour

This image was taken along Wacker Drive on the south bank of the river, about a block from where the gigantic statue of Abraham Lincoln sits and not far from the Michigan Avenue bridge posted yesterday.
For flash of red -- these trolleys are a common flash of red around Chicago.
If celebrating Valentine's Day, I hope it's happy!
Love-love-love! :-)

@casablanca It's easiest in LR. I know PS is supposed to be even easier because of layers, but I haven't worked it out yet.
February 15th, 2017  
makes me want to do some sight seeing - really nice Taffy
February 16th, 2017  
We never celebrate Valentine's Day, just another excuse for commecialism. What a dinky little trolley bus, must be fun to ride around in that for a while. Tourist trap? Regardless, your SC here is perfect for the flashofred.
February 16th, 2017  
Perfect for Flash of Red. Fabulous shot!
February 16th, 2017  
If it weren't for the buildings behind it, I'd think this was London. Great shot!

Great flash of red. It has a vintage feel about it.
