Brainstorm

It’s brainstorm time for new photo ideas and directions.  After a full year of my photo a day project, I took a bit of time away from shooting.

Chicago at Sunset

The Chicago Skyline from the Adler Planetarium.  Since I am spending this day shooting with friends in Chicago, I thought I’d share an image I took the last time was there last August.
