Beautiful work. The monochrome/sepia and muted colors make the scale and shapes and perspectives really stand out

Great pictures of architecture in Chicago, an amazing city of course!

All your pictures are very nice, taken from several angles.

It´s wonderful to see Chicago again, with its wonderful skyscrapers and buildings. I miss it.

Thanks a lot for the pictures and congratulations from Madrid, Spain!

Lovely. Even the plain boxy skyscrapers look nice. Chicago deserves to be in the top 10 skyscraperpage destinations!

Awesome shots! What camera/lens combination are you using? Some of these pictures have such little perception. I love it.
