Walking around town in the snow today with my CrappyCameraPhone™. It's very quiet in Chicago. For a time, I was the only person at Caribou Coffee across from Millennium Park. Normally, getting a seat here is impossible during daylight hours, let alone at lunchtime.
I love the last photo.
ReplyDeleteCloudgate and the Jay Pritzker Pavilion have a mysterious north triberly monstery feel because of:
-the monochromatic palette
-snowy misty air
-the vantage point. Lines of trees lead to the Gehry on the horizon and Cloudgate creeps in from the right
-the traffic is veering to the left as if to avoid the creepy Millennium Forest which is the home to the heavily-armed Gehry Fortress of Solitude and the fierce Abominable Snowbean
Beware!
Glad you like it. I shot it from a meting room on the fifth floor of the Chicago Cultural Center.
