Downtown Mural

A while back I wandered around the downtown area taking photos. One of my favorite is here on the right. I think the reason I like it is that the mural looks so life like. It's as though someone pasted a large photo on top of a muted Aztec mural.

For those that want to see it for themselves, you can find it on the back of the Chicago Music Land store on Congress.

Sorry, I posted these a bit late.

Grand Canyon Trees

As it has been a while since I last posted, I thought that I'd put up another photo of the Grand Canyon. It's funny, but of all the photos I took at the Grand Canyon, I happen to like those that don't show the canyon the best. I guess that's because it is so hard to capture it in a way that no one else has. Whereas, a photo like the one on the left has far fewer similar photos to compete with.

Now in case you are wondering, I didn't really post-process this at all, just a simple circular polarizer was used to bring out the blue sky.

Hope you like it.
