Blue Hour Cityscape by taffy

Blue Hour Cityscape

Tonight was so clear that the city just sparkled. It occurred to me as I walked home from the dentist whose office is across from Millennium Park that I saw more people in that one mile (about 25 minute walk) than I'd seen on Beaver Island the entire summer. But on a night like tonight, it really glitters. Best on black, actually.
Taken handheld, using the window to keep the camera steady.
Gorgeous time of day and the lights add to the sense of sparkliness
