So, timing is everything. I've lived in the city (Chicago) proper for 10 years, but I'd never really been to Millennium Park. But a group I belong to had a photo hike scheduled for there today. Just in time for the end of this appature. :)
Anyway, there's a structure at the entrance to the park that's officially called "Cloud Gate," but not one person I know actually calls it that. We all call it "The Bean". It's a big mirrored bean that sucks in photographers from an 18 mile radius, I swear. I have never seen more cameras in one place since the last time I went to a camera shop. Most play inside where you can stand on your own head and stuff, but I was having fun taking shots outside.
The Chicago skyline, both in front of and behind me. (Yes, that little orange and blue blob at the bottom left is your intrepid photographer.)
