Ooooooh! WOW! I absolutely love this. Been to Chicaog before but never saw this bean (I have to say that I was always working). I think it is even better with the golden Christmas lights and you captured this at the right time to get a very nice complementary sky color.
So great. The clumps of snow look like islands in the sea. The bean looks like a big ol world globe with little clumps of islands.
OK, I'll go take my delusional meds now. LOL
beautifully photographed .. the amazing Chicago Cloud Gate Sculpture, i thought was photoshopped in at first !! ... love that there's a person taking a photograph !! ..
unusual design at the top of the building on the lhs ..
a fantastic image .. the colours, the lights, the shapes, the reflections .. everything .. BRILLIANT ... !!
Oh I really want to see this!! I love this photo, so clear and the bits of snow stuck to the bean are really cool.
Story: My brother-in-law and his wife went to Chicago a couple of months ago to shop. When they got back I asked if they had seen the Bean, they had no idea what I was talking about! I showed them some pics on the internet and they said they didn't go to that area. I can't believe some people.
geesh! this is grogeous! what a great Chicago postcard this could be! thher is so much going on here it's really fun to look at, and the varying POVs b/c of that reflection adds so much! you captured the light and the action really well!
