Chicago, from John Hancock Tower

This is totally cool, Patrick. I've really got to learn how to do this nightime photography thing. How did you do this? - inquiring minds want to know... ;-) #246183Evy Johansen May 08, 2005
Wow - Wonderful image, Patrick! #1329545Michelle R. Kovach May 08, 2005
Wonderful shot Patrick! You sure do get to go a lot of places!Patrick Campbell May 08, 2005
Thanks Mary-Ella, Evy, and Michelle! This was taken from the observatory on the the 94th floor. Like the Empire State Building, it's set up for tourists and they charge admission. Unlike the ESB they let me take a tripod, but I was discreet about using it. Exposure time was 2 1/2 seconds. The time of day--a little while after sunset--was the crucial thing for the colors. Because we were behind glass I had to be careful to avoid reflections. As you can see the view from this tower is phenomenal! #1330934SaMi Martin May 12, 2005
Wow...Wow...Wow...this is awesome. #1345350Patrick Campbell May 12, 2005

Thank you Kerby! #1366389Rhonda Smith May 26, 2005
And another gorgeous one Patrick... you have a great vantage point for these shots too!! #1399955Patrick Campbell May 26, 2005
Thanks Rhonda! If the weather is cooperating it's definitely worth the $10 for admission. My first time up there, hopefully not my last. Somebody local told me they stay open after dark, unlike the Sears Tower--another popular vantage point in Chicago. #1400634Susan L. Vasquez June 08, 2005
