My wife and I spent a couple of days in Chicago last week. I have been there on business many times, but never recreationally. What a beautiful city!
Bob and Lynn Sullivan met us at the DankHaus, and we spent a leisurely hour and a half absorbing the Augenblick exhibit. It is really wonderful, and makes the book "come alive". Friday evening, after dinner, my wife and I walked over to the John Hancock Building, whose upper reaches were in the clouds. Because of "zero visibility" they sold us tickets at half price, and we went up. Shortly after we arrived at the top, the clouds parted, and showed us this: http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=11049690&size=lg (K10D, FA 28/2.8, ISO 1100, f/2.8 @ 1/3 sec) What looks like pattern noise is from the screen one had to shoot through.

Rick P.S. Eggleston sucks. A toddler with an Instamatic could have shot that crap. But there has been some discussion of that already... -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
