I have been going to Chicago a lot more than usual lately so I had to take advantage of that for my photo 52 project. My deadline for getting my picture for the week is every Monday and published by Friday. I drove up instead of taking the train and unexpectedly found myself working until about 10pm. Having only 2 hours to get a shot, I had to think fast. Earlier in the day, I had to stop at a Best Buy to get some DVD-Rs (don’t judge me) and parked in a free garage. I am always up for free parking in Chicago so I couldn’t help but make a mental note.
I drove to the top of the garage, and I had a pretty decent vantage point. Of course when I don’t bring a tripod I would end up needing it. It was not a big deal though, I just steadied the camera on the ledge and it seemed to work pretty well. Apparently there is also a yoga studio on the top of the garage and I think I looked like a little creepy with my big camera up there. Wouldn’t be the first time I guess.
I am just tonight getting around to editing because my parents were kind enough to give us some furniture they no longer wanted. I can’t say no to free stuff so I was busy getting it all moved in this week. On top of that, we are giving away some of our own stuff we no longer need so it has been a busy week.
