High in the Sky

The difference in 24 hours -- from gloomy winter to a sunny 'opening day' in Chicago. From street vendors to the ferris wheel, everything came alive today. It was a 12,000 plus steps walking day - wonderful to be outside. Will be returning to Iceland shots but thought Chicago deserved to be featured after being so nice to us all today!

I hope you went for a ferris wheel ride - they are so much fun :)

[Rosie Kerr]

Beautiful POV with some amazing clouds. Lovely shot. :)

[Marnie]

Your pov is spot-on to show the best of the ferris wheel. The hard lines of the structure look so good against the fluffy little clouds. Great in b&w too.

[Tony]

Those clouds provide an appealing backdrop to that magnificent wheel.

[Louise & Ken]

This marvelous photo has "Taffy" written all over it! Within the first 16th as it opened, I knew that was you!

[Pam Knowler]

My mum would have called this a maceral sky - I suppose it looks like the scales of the fish? Great POV so pleased the weather improved for you today and that you could get out and enjoy it! 12,000 plus steps? I had better get fitter in 3 weeks ! Lol! Fav !

[Babs]

Love the pov and looks so good in b&w. Hope you had a ride on the ferris wheel too. fav

[Beryl Lloyd]

Great pov with the ferris wheel under that stunning "mackerel" sky . . Must be marvellous sights seen from the ferris wheel

[Casablanca]

Those skies just remind me of Summer - love that kind of cloud. No doubt there is a technical name for it but I don't know what it is! This reminded me of the London Eye, gorgeous.
