Imagination out of the ordinary
Silly or not, I’m glad that someone else like to share my pics. Sometimes (on Instagram) I add the hashtag #Shootoff and some of those pics get shared. These are the latest nine pics that got shared by Shootoff. And my normal 20-40 likes/pic add upp to a little more. Nice.
Can you guess which of these nine that got the highest acclaim?
Yup, thats the one. “Thru it all”, botton middle…
Walked about in Chicago a bit, mostly looking forward and down (from the Loop), but occasionally I also looked up as the Windy city has many dimensions of interest and one is “high”.
There was this hotel, that had put pillows and cushions in the windows and in one of them…
Yes. Me too. I also think that this is quite an ordinary pic.
But something about the lines in the bridge, the colors and the backdrop fascinates me. Even if I really don’t know why.
Do you?
I’ve now added a page with some of my pics from Chicago last November. Visited my family in Indianapolis for Thanksgiving and took some time to drive and meet a friend of mine there. Click here for the gallery.
Right there, at Millennium Park in Chicago, people live it up; walking, meeting, skating. And, off course, stopping to memorize the moment too.
Just one single day. That’s what I spent downtown Chicago. But I can feel the love – kinda like a good blues song.
Had en really nice day with my friend Mats Alfredsson in Chicago – the town he’s been taking street photography in for seven years and the town I’v been passing by for more than 30 years, but never spent time in.
He showed me the fairly small “Loop” with surroundings. So many “stages” for Street photography – lines, lights and layers combining in all different kind of ways. Here’s just on example, that I’ve toyed a bit with. Mats is doing a lot of black and white – I’m quite happy as some of my color shots turned out really well.
Crown Fountain in Chicago. Lots of people, lots of opportunities to shoot street photography. Like this one, taken midday a Saturday in late November.
Maybe I’m a fool, maybe I was just enchanted. But I gave him a five dollar bill – after receiving a CD I still haven’t listened to. But I meet him just as I left the parking and came onto Millennium Park in Chicago. Magical day, it was. And maybe worth that bill?
