The Day after Christmas - Millennium Park (restored post)
« on: January 02, 2008, 02:32:46 AM »
Chicago - Millennium Park, December 2007

I went to Chicago on the day after Christmas, and finished early with what I had gone to do. I caught a Green Line train downtown and found myself with some time to kill before my South Shore train left for Indiana. I roamed around the Millennium Park area with a new toy, a Nikon S700. There are times when photography isn't my main objective, and a DSLR can be a lot of extra cargo to carry around. I hate to be without a camera, though, and I wanted something that would fit in my pocket. I'm still figuring out how to get the best results from it, but I don't think these turned out too badly. The biggest issue for me is that the LCD screen challenges my eyesight. It's easier for me to see what's going on in the life-size view provided by a DSLR.

Nice!
I love it when people come into a message board and immediately begin to mix it up.  I mean, Jesus, at least say hello!  Do you walk into a room full of strangers, pick a random woman, and tell her she's fat? - buildingcincinnati
