nice, nice nice nice. (!) super work.

My Favorites are the Chicago Board of Trade and the birds on Wacker drive along the river, there are so many of them... your eye traces them around.

The reflections in the windows of the cultural center with the b/w treatment is also startling.

When I look back, each of the photos deserves looking at several times.. quite an interesting collection.

Eric

I can picture all these locations - they look great in b/w - you have a true talent!

Although I would have thought I would never praise another Bean/Cloudscape photo, that last picture is striking and captures the interest people give it... I also like the the Aon / Prudential shot.. My favorite building in Chicago is the Aon Building although I still want to call it Amoco... I hear the owners are considering putting some residential on the top floors starting 2012, perhaps if we win the lottery we will live there someday. :-)

Do you mind if I start a new section in the Photos gallery with all your pictures? That way people can leave comments on each one individually... I'll go ahead and set it up and then you can let me know what you think. There will be a link under each one to chicagophotoshop.com - would you like that to be the name of that section / Gallery in the photos section?

Thanks,
Eric

My daughter loves the lion - I am partial to the roadway stream shot - but I can't place it ?? Where was it taken?

When I get placed in the photo gallery, do you have titles for them? I'll post under your account name so you should be able to edit information directly..

I took the roadway shot from the North Ave. bridge over LSD. it didnt come out the way I had hoped, I have to get back out there and try again. dont worry about titles I can edit them once you post them.

check out this one I caught at the lions of a father lifting up his daughter to the lions. I titled that one, "Feed her to the Lions!"

These are now uploaded.

http://www.windychat.com/photos/index.php

Think about the best way to organize/categorize them, especially if you want to add more. I was not very creative. I'd be happy to set up the categories as you suggest.

I uploaded them with the ftp upload features so it was pretty easy to get them all up there, but I did not put any names or descriptions on any of them..

I did post all of them as your user so you should be able to edit all of them. Let me know if you have any questions or would like to change anything.

Thanks,
Eric
