CHICAGO Has a river
I've been testing out my new camera on a few night shots this week. I might add a few more later this week.

Enjoy!










Ahhhh, I'm so sorry:

And this test has been perfect, I would say.

Thanks a lot for these wonderful night pictures of Chicago, hayward! I´ve enjoyed watching them.

I hope to see more tests like this one, of course.

Congratulations and greetings from Madrid, Spain!

Super-crisp night shots, as always.

Personally, I think Chicago should be proud of the Elysian. I mean, how many cities have a 40-story tower made entirely of cardboard and styrofoam?

Chicago has a river.

Indeed it does.

Once we had one spectacular, world famous waterfront, our magnificent lakefront. No more. Today, with our river, the world's greatest man made canyon (also magnificent and unmatched: where else can you see a river carve out the space between soaring towers?) we have two.

Yum!

It looks like you're about to have an opportunity to do some "Chicago has snow" tests. Stay warm!
