Sadly, or actually unfortunately I missed all the fun during the
weekend. This is a wonderful photo, Christine and I had great time,
although short, reading the comments. I so much wish more comments like
that of John came up - that would be truly great.

Thanks for everyone's input. I think the comments about the left hand
side have validity. I'll take a look at the original frame see if
there's room for more fussing. It's been a while since I fussed with
this, so a fresh look might work to the picture's advantage.
Darrel, my nephew, and I had just left the Art Institute through the
exit from the new Modern Wing on to Monroe street. As mentioned the shot
is made facing west & the street going north/south is Michigan Ave. I'm
standing in the middle of the street trying not to get hit by cars,
which made me rush the shot. I rendered it in sepia; it was such a dirty
gray foggy & rainy day and couldn't get a bw rendering I liked. When I
tried sepia, I felt it worked best. I think I'll print it out to see how
I like the coloring of the browns etc.
Big thanks to Bob W for his generous remarks and to John S for his very
thoughtful extended commentary. Much appreciated guys.
Cheers, Christine
