Over the last several years, I have noticed an interesting phenomenon as I travel throughout the city:  Skyscrapers create their own micro climates.  Traveling south on Lake Shore Drive toward the John Hancock Center, I sometimes see fog drifting in that pretty much obscures the skyline, only to discover clear skies once I cross North Avenue heading south on LaSalle.

I gave some thought to reducing the amount of water in the foreground--and I could have because I shifted several times as I made multiple exposures--but the reflected colors were so lovely, particularly as doom descends upon us tomorrow.

I was interested in the fog, so I headed north, took the underpass to North Avenue Beach, and then headed south.  From that vantage point, Chicago was socked in.  A great day for two friends to take a walk, discussing whatever was on their minds.
