Wonderful pictures, Hayward!

Last September, my girlfriend and me went to CHI to spend a week of holidays, and we enjoyed our visit there. We liked CHI very much, people, buidlings, everything.

We´re wishing to go back there again, and even we wouldn´t mind to live there.

Congratulations for your pics and greetings from MAD, Spain!

Your shot of The Elysian might be one of the best Chicago photos of the year. You make an forgettable tower look outstanding!

Just to the left out of shot is a recessed area that could be a bike area but noooo


Looks like Detroit with new high rise construction.

Good looking shots. Love the tones and contrasty look of the first photo.

Great set. I like the way these are processed. They look like an old picture book from the 80's.
