Clearing through the fog – The Bean (Cloud Gate)

I don’t know why I’m so drawn towards this enormous sculpture.  Each time I go there I try to take a shot that is better than the last.  Unfortunately, this visit did not cooperate like I hoped.  I still think most would approve?

Reflection

As my skills as a photographer have improved, I find my self looking at the world around me differently.  For example, this weekend I was in Chicago for a street photography workshop given by Steve Huff.  We were all standing at Crown Fountain in Millennium Park taking pictures and this couple were having their pictures taken by a professional photographer.  As I stood and watched, I looked down and liked the reflection of the couple, photographer and background. Therefore, instead of taking a picture the couple I decided to focus on the reflection.
