Buckingham Fountain

This photograph is either a two or four-minute exposure at F32 and ISO 100.  I was using the iPad wireless app to trigger the shutter, and the camera appears to have recorded the shutter speed shown on the dial rather than the one I inputed into the application.  My camera was fitted with a 10-stop neutral density filter, which explains the silky water and fuzzy clouds.

Double Ecstasy: Malt and Fries

[Click on the photograph to enlarge it and for additional commentary]

Double ecstasy might be a malt and fries from McDonald's, or something else.  If you are lucky, it might be both.  Lollapalooza is in town for its annual four-day run in Grant Park, so the streets are filled with suburban kids in J. Crew and NBA gear, as well as investment bankers who can afford the $6,600 platinum package.  Time is the only thing that separates the two.
