Last November we visited Chicago for a few days. This was mostly an urban adventure — walking around The Loop, going out to eat, visiting the Art Institute of Chicago, taking in performances of the Chicago Lyric Opera and the Chicago Symphony. But if a natural subject is to be found, I am going to photograph it!
One afternoon we took a long walk through the “Magnificent Mile” section of the city, eventually passing beyond the tall downtown buildings and coming to a… beach! Beaches don’t seem to be particularly popular places in Chicago in November, for good reason. But we wandered out toward the water’s edge, where I was able to photograph this panorama of of the water and a fascinating cloud deck.
