Day 306 – “I’m impressed with the people from Chicago. Hollywood is hype. New York is talk. Chicago is work.” Michael Douglas
My Kind of Town
Da Bears
Day 295 – The C is worn with pride here in Illinois, win or lose. Da Bears have been my favorite football team for as long as I can remember. We won today, but it’s too early to say if we’ll be doing the Superbowl Shuffle this season.
Seagull
Day 258 – I was going through some old photos today and I came across this one. We were at the Lincoln Park Zoo and the seagulls were out near the food court looking for lunch. They are quite used to people so it’s possible to get fairly close. But don’t expect them to pose if you don’t have a tasty morsel for them.
Vanessa
Day 198 – I sure hope Vanessa is okay. That’s a pretty steep drop off into the water below and that ladder looked questionable.
John G. Shedd Aquarium
Day 194 – We made our annual trip to the Shedd Aquarium today. It was a beautiful day in Chicago.
Crazy About Daisy
Day 150 – I love these daisies with the purple and yellow centers. They are all in full bloom at the Lincoln Park Conservatory. It’s a wonderful place to visit (and it’s free). There are rooms for ferns, orchids, garden plants and palms.
The Underside of The Bean
Day 87 – Everyone shows you the famous Bean sculpture in Chicago from the front. Here’s what you see when you walk underneath it. What a trip!
Chicago Water Tower
Day 77 – A photo I took over the holidays while in Chicago. Not much color correction needed this time.
Windy City Marilyn
Day 72 – Still trying to figure out Lightroom on the Mac. The program is so powerful and can give me so much freedom to adjust my photos. Now if I can just learn how to properly size them for the blog.
