    Hey Andrew,

    Nice shots, I especially like the kids in number 8!

    I was just in Chicago a few weeks ago and saw that fountain as well, what a great concept!

    #3 is awesome. I think you are supposed to tell the story that goes with the fun photos ... were you a bird or a plane?

    Haha, I certainly wish I was Superman.

    I was actually at the top of The Sears tower, and took that particular picture out of the bottom part of the window, not expecting much.

    Glad you liked it! :D

    Thanks!

    I really expected to get no feedback of any kind, assuming that I was a novice in an ocean of seasoned professionals. I'm glad we have some nice people on these forums.

    Isn't Chicago amazing?

    It is. I don't get down there very often. Your pictures do it justice, Andrew. Looks like the sun was hiding that day. Sorry about that. Millenium Park is quite the place, isn't it?

    Thanks, I appreciate that. beer.gif

    That was the one thing I disliked about taking pictures that day; it was really overcast. I took the train there hoping to get some great pictures of a sunset with the buildings, but no luck.

    I would live in Chicago just for Millenium Park, haha!

    Shot 2 is my favorite above all. For me it really gives a sense of the everyday life of a big city. Crossing paths with so many faces you will almost never meet, each with their own story to tell. Very nice photos. Thanks.

    Thank YOU! I secretly felt that number 2 was the best, and I'm glad you liked it.
