Hope you are all having a great day? Here is my attempt to recreate iconic shot of Chicago. This skyline views are very impressive and I really enjoy spending time here. The idea was to wait for a perfect opportunity to get the photograph I wanted. The plan was to shoot with the infrared camera on a cloudy day so I can get that strong contrast I’m always going for and get those wind painted clouds only possible using Sony’s in camera app or manually blending exposures. I prefer that method because cloud movement looks more dramatic in my opinion. What do you think?

I had such a hard time getting this photo just right to upload!!! It really didn't look like what I had finished in my editing, but came out super dark on flickr... Hard to know what you can rely on when doing your editing and posting, especially if you don't see the image on flickr the same as your final edit. Wonder what you see. I don't know if anyone has come across the same issue.
What to do? Another weekend is here and we are brainstorming a new location to photograph fall color. Few ideas come to mind and till we come back with some new images I will leave you with this frame from my recent PA trip. What do you think?

“To be away from home and yet to feel oneself everywhere at home; to see the world, to be at the centre of the world, and yet to remain hidden from the world—impartial natures which the tongue can but clumsily define. The spectator is a prince who everywhere rejoices in his incognito.” Charles Baudelaire

I hope this sends you back in time? Here is the last image, for now, of this Detroit series. This is a beautiful “Grand Army of the Republic (GAR) Building. It was designed by architect Julius Hess, and constructed at 1942 West Grand River and Cass as an appropriate structure for meetings and other GAR related activities. This Richardsonian Romanesque-designed building lies on a small, triangular lot on the northwest side of downtown Detroit” (Wiki). We really enjoyed photographing this gem. What do you think?
Have you give it a try? I must tell you that since I came to Chicago I wanted to get this image underneath the train trucks, people and car free, but for obvious reason I wasn’t able to. And believe me I tried. As much as I hate what is going on around us for the past couple of months capturing this image made me really happy. Always looking for the little things we can hang on to!
