Reflections

I think this one below looks like a face... something from Halloween?

This one looks like Chinese language characters.

The Drake

Image
The Drake Hotel in Chicago is a grand old hotel... I like it a lot except that the Internet blows. We have Ethernet in the room as well as Wi-Fi but it so slow it's like dial-up. It's been driving me crazy for days.

Chicago Art

The MCA was between shows and had basically nothing to see.
Image
Image
The Art Institute had one big show I wanted to see... photography of Jeff Wall, but after seeing it I was disappointed. Not for me thanks. But as usual, the permanent collection overwhelms.

Yes, it's a monkey.

Tarmac Dawn

I was on a really early flight to Chicago this morning. It always seems that when I get off of a plane early in the morning I see something I want to photograph. Fortunately I always have my little Fuji in my pocket ready to go. I shot this in about 10 seconds before walking into O'Hare.

Flying to Chicago

A few random views from United Express, Charleston to Chicago.

The gold-leaf dome of the West Virginia State Capitol stands out in the setting sun.

Crossing the Ohio River. That plume at the bottom is something burning... not sure what.
