Navy Pier Ferris Wheel

Andie @ukandie1 and I toured the Shakespeare Theatre on Navy Pier (and their "Best New Theater in the World' addition). Afterward, we hung out on the pier, including riding the Ferris Wheel. Here are two version of this shot -- one with Andie, one without anyone. Navy Pier in February means there aren't a lot of crowds!
Check out Andie's version from the top of the parking structure: https://365project.org/ukandie1/365/2018-02-26

At this angle, it could be mistaken for an object, much smaller, with a great amount of detail in it! Nice image!

[Lou Ann]

This is an optical illusion! It appears that you can climb the stairs and hop right into a Ferris wheel car. Fabulous!

[Ukandie!]

I really like your b&w edit! Thought you might enjoy this shot http://365project.org/ukandie1/365/2015-09-22 I don't think I would have wanted to be one of the old open gondolas today!

[Chris Johnson]

This is so interesting! Never thought about photographing a ferris wheel from this perspective before!! Super shot!!

[Sheralee S]

That's a different perspective, I like it that it's different from the norm.

[Cathie]

Wonderful pov.

Terrific pov

[gloria jones]

Wow...Terrific pov, leading lines :)

[Walks @ 7]

Amazing and a great perspective. Fav.

[Marnie]

Wonderful repeating lines and shapes. I do like the absence of a sense of scale in this shot, really gives the imagination free rein. Looks like a fun wheel to ride.

[Diane]

Neat lines and POV--different from most ferris wheel shots.

[Diana]

Fabulous composition, lines and shapes.

Aggggghhh, I am having an Indiana Jones moment and think this thing is rolling at me and will squash me! Superb pov, love it.

@kathiecb We were lucky that we happened on both a discount for Illinois residents (only on Mondays until March 31st) AND one of the nicest days we've had all winter!
