Taken moments before The Bean swallowed me whole. I had enough time to take this shot, grab the SD card and throw it to freedom. I then snapped my shutter three times while saying, “There’s no place like home, there’s no place like home.” That’s my story and I’m sticking to it!

Not much of a challenge here, but I have to find some way to justify sharing all these picture of The Bean 🙂  Just one more after this one…. I promise.

Welcome to the 1st of 3 “where’s carlos?” images featuring the always fun and crazy Cloud Gate, a.k.a., The Bean. First prize for the correct answer is….well…….  …..actually….. I don’t have any prizes. The bragging rights, however, are yours!

This was taken at Maggie Daley Park in Chicago. This is an amazing urban play-scape featuring this remarkable suspension rope bridge, and other typical park activities in a modern, beautifully designed setting. A must see if you ever visit Chicago!

Taken just moments before this giant head gobbled up those poor people, who were just minding there own business, out for a stroll on a sunny day in Chicago. Oh the humanity!!!

Back to Millennium Park for this post. Chicago is a remarkable city to experience as a photographer. I hope to take some more time this year to enjoy the architecture and parks of the Windy City.

I have not researched this yet to know the artist(s) or project, but there are at least four of these giant heads in and around Millennium Park in Chicago. This one makes a nice addition to the skyline, don’t you think?

Another shot of the Bean that everyone just has to see. If you are ever in Chicago-land, Millennium Park is must see, and so is the Bean.
