I believe this was Memorial Park. I'm not positive, though. The black building is the Sears Tower. This was taken at about 8am.
Little Peace
This park was incredible. It was set right on Lake Michigan and really gives you a chance to feel detached from the constant movement of the city. Truth is, if you walk down the path, on the left, in about 1/2 mile you are in it again. I really enjoyed this spot.

125 Clicks
This 125ft ferriswheel was on Navy Pier, which juts out into lake Michigan. The peir itself was designed like a theme park, and didnt really impress me that much. There was a section, inside, which had a massive collection of stained glass from the 19th century, and made the 1/2 mile walk down the peir well worth it.
Michigan
This was taken when we first arrived in Chi-town. It was 7:30 am and this was the only shot where it was even possible to have clouds in it. The rest of the day, the sky was perfectly clear.

In Sense
This is an idea that I got from Dave at chromasia.com. He did a hue adjustment to the smoke, but I found this to be a little more original and more dramatic. Whoever sees this should check out his shot, also.

The Thought
I liked this shot quite a bit. I find it to show a sense of contemplation, and, for anyone wondering, that is only a cigarette.
Turbulence
At first this picture disappointed me b/c of the "scar" of the airplane on the picture (this is the streak that you see). I decided not to post it initially, but when I was looking at it a couple weeks later I realized what the people in that plane saw at that moment. It gave me a different perspective and made braving this storm worthwhile.

Negative Feedback
This is the same thing as "Fingerpainting", I just thought it looked wierd enough to post it too.
Fingerpainting
This and "Negative Feedback" were the results of a little experiment I did. I wish I could claim the idea as my own, but I cannot. Here is what I did: Take an LED waterproof light and stick it in the sink (with it on, obviously), turn on the water, start shooting, take it to photoshop and have fun messing with it.
