Are you in the mood for a tip? Stay with me for a moment. Todays TIP: If you didn’t forget to change the year in the copyright info inside your camera, please do it now! Yes we are still in the city limits and believe it or not this is taken in Chicago. For those of you city folks who didn’t recognize this place, this is the Garden Of the Phoenix and for those of you who are planing to visit, this is one of the most beautiful hidden spots. It is unbelievable how much perspective shifts if you allow yourself to roam around a bit. What do you think?
