I like your choice of perspective, tilting the foreground and shooting up to bring the buildings at left vertical. Looks like it was a beautiful Chicago morning.

Nice use of HDR to shot a lot of color.

Nice composition. A lot of dust on your sensor, but the angle of composition of the photo overrules that and the whole thing is still quite nice.

It is such a funny bean
planted on a metropolitan street.
It grows not branch nor leafy green
but reflects the pulse of city heartbeat.

I like the angle you took this for it adds visual interest. The reflected lines on the concrete and the city skyline makes the Bean look like it monitoring the heartbeat of the city vibe. Having seen some other picture of the sculptures that grace Millennium Park, the bean does indeed reflect the art vibe of the city:-)

What an incredible nightscape! Wow. I was going to say it was a great landscape, and then I noticed the stars. Should have finished on the happier side of 6 I think for sure.
