Architecture

Carried Away

As the wind blows away the swirling clouds, the giant standds tall

Concrete Waves

I love it when buildings incorporate an organic design and the Aqua does it better than any other in Chicago. It feels alive under the late afternoon sun

LIft Off

The patterns and reflections in this atrium is truly dizzying. I wanted to do black and white, but reds and blues are so compelling.

Portals

Bunker Hill Memorial Bridge

After a couple of days roaming around Boston, I'm back in Chicago - and on IG. We had just perfect weather, so I was out and about late at night trying to get some photos of the lesser touristy places. Wish that building was not there blocking the view of this beautiful bridge.

All That Glass

Absolutely my favorite modern building in Boston. The majesty of it really comes alive with a wide angle lens. I was wishing I had my 14 mm with me.

Crystalline

I can't get enough of this building. I love how black and white brings out flowing lines in the glass.

Hexed

The icredible glass sculpture that is the Harpa Concert Hall is a treasure trove of repeating patterns.

Harpa at Blue Hour

The ever changing lighting of this magnificent building makes it difficult to pick a favorite image. I thought this one was perfect with a composition of nothing but the primary colors.

The Broad

The late afternoon light hits the top of the building so perfectly lighting it up.

Trapped

This little nook in the loop felt so claustrophobic when you look up.

All lit up

Anyone wants to count all those windows?

The Flamingo

I often avoid iconic photo spots, but when I do get to them, I understand why they are so popular to start with. Taken with my portrait lens at f/2 from across the street.

LA Reflections - The Dark Side

The reflecting light from building across the street tries in vain to illuminate the dark side.

LA Reflections - Mystic Rhythms

Invisible fingers tap out syncopated rhythms causing ripples in the glass fabric.

LA Reflections - Trapped

Behind the grid flexing rippling glass and steel trying to break through

LA Reflections - Sky Blue Sky

Decked in blue and glowing from the afternoon sun, is that a glass ship with steel portholes?

Zig Zag

Now are those floors really parallel?
