Since I have not gotten to shoot the city since we are still settling in at home, this is from last month. It is two shots stitched together as I stood on the little median between the two sides of traffic on Wacker.

These remnants of an old wooden pier are at Wacker Quay, near Torpoint in Cornwall. It was first established in the mid 19th century as an agricultural dock complete with lime kiln. In 1886 the site changed completely when a military railway was constructed. This ran from the quay, along the river and up a steep incline to the twin forts of Scraesdon and Tregantle (part of the 19th century fortifications of Plymouth). The 2.5 mile long railway was finished by 1893 but only survived until 1905, largely due to high running costs. Still owned by the MOD, the quay is now managed by Cornwall Council as a picnic site.
Wacker Quay is also a popular winter bird-watching site. Many shore birds, including waders and duck, come to the Lynher to over-winter and can be seen on the extensive mudflats that are easily visible from the quay when the tide is out.
Took a stroll along Wacker Quay looking over the River Lynher, a great walk and great for bird watching if that's your thing., Thanks for looking and all recent comments
Il treno più interessante che percorre quotidianamente la linea Mühldorf - Burghausen è senza dubbio il Wacker-Shuttle, il treno di container che collega quotidianamente Hamburg Maschen a Burghausen. Una volta arrivato a Burghausen in mattinata il treno riparte per Maschen nel primo pomeriggio. Nella foto vediamo il bellissimo convoglio mentre percorre l'itinerario d'arrivo nella stazione di Tüßling.
Enjoying our city. Chicago is home to a wide-variety of sites that any photographer would love to shoot. The biggest problem tends to be that we live in a great city so we don't fully enjoy it like a tourist would enjoy it. Basically, we get robbed when it comes time for a high-rise view of the city because we aren't staying overnight in the city because we live so close. Recently, I booked a night at Hotel 71 and spoiled myself with a river-view. Some of Chicago's best hotels offer incredible views of the city that Chicago photographers often miss.
Took my 2nd dose of COVID vaccine yesterday. Today I felt like a "wack" as depicted in this photo I took a few months ago.
Here is Dave (the owner) climbing up the truck to dump the glass into the bucket, also thank you to Dave for letting me and nick help/ride along for a bit this morning
From their website:
155 North Wacker is a 48 story office tower pre-certified LEED-CS Silver by the USGBC.
Floor to ceiling glass allows abundant daylight to penetrate the office floors and reduce the load from artificial light.
Fantastic Friday and a wonderful weekend to you.

Reflections on 333 West Wacker, a building at the Chicago River by Kohn Pederson Fox; Perkins & Will.
Detail of the tower of the 35 East Wacker Drive Building - Formerly known as the Jeweler's Building (1925·1928)
and as the Pure Oil Building (1928·1962).
The decorative details, from the alternating bands of
rustication on the shaft of the tower to the ornate articulation of its lantern and dome, were among the last
Beaux-Arts Inspired details used to decorate a major skyscraper in Chicago.
