Description
A scene in Chicago, reflected in the glass of a photograph taken in Seattle.
.....
With only a couple of exceptions, all the images I've posted from my Chicago trip were taken on that Famous Friday. Mark and Marilyn and I wandered the streets of North Chicago, and I took over 400 photographs.
While I might post one or two more somewhere down the line, I'm pretty much done with Friday in Chicago! About time, huh? We were there in the middle of September, and it's now the middle of January!
After a short intermission, I'll be moving on to Saturday. The images I captured on Saturday won't be anything like Friday's ... the two days were different in tone and attitude. Friday was more about the photography, and Saturday was more about the company.
I bet you're glad I don't go on vacation very often! :P

anything with coffee must be a favourite of mine :-)
I think you should go on far MORE vacations!! These coffee breaks were so much fun, a welcome break from all our wanderings, and of course, more foto ops!!
Great shot and I look forward to Saturday's session, just as long as we stop for coffee, that is....
Oh, this is priceless...and to think I was moving dental equipment when this photo was taken! Ugh...but Friday NIGHT was fantastic, and there was good food. The funny thing is I think I saw that picture today. I went to the Post Office to see what it takes to be a postal employee (I have to apply online) and I stopped for coffee in the pretty part of Chicago before going to visit Corey. Well...I thing I saw this picture. Or one like it. It wasn't Chicago, and it was coffee related. But anyway, enough of that! This shot rocks. Completely. It's full of life, reflections of life, vibrant light and wonderful colors. I kinda like all of those things when they all come together, and they come together perfectly here! As for vacation pictures! I love every one of them! They're fantastic! As for this picture itself, well...it's superb.
Great shot, lovely reflections in this, now roll on Saturday... well done!!
LOL...actualy I would not mind if you would be able to go on a holiday. See the other side of the world through your pictures. That would be nice. About this picture. You so clever to see this, many ppl would pass it you don't.
Trying to see what's in the reflection, nice shot.
A picture within a picture within a picture. Chicago through your eyes has been a revelation. I am up for more of the guided tour! Great mood, Clive
Yes, Saturday is never like Friday... Great shot, beautiful reflections! C'mon take vacations and travel more (with your camera)!
Oh Dierbaar - this is such a great idea! Wonderful mood created here! I am looking forward to Saturday and even more to your visit to Africa - I'm not going to let you off the hook on that one!
I did the math. If you were out and about for ten hours you were taking a picture every 90 seconds! I'm surprised your camera didn't burst into flame. Nice picture by the way. Great reflections. Like another world seen dimly.
YES THis is a great Photo. A little dreamy and wiith lovely colors and mood. NO! Keep up posting chicago shots. I love them.
As I do ALL my travel vicariously, you can keep 'em coming! This is a complex little masterpiece. Inspired by you I took some pics of reflections after the theatre last night.
I'm a tea person myself... But a fine picture.. Cleverly taken! Well done, Tara! Rob
very nice!
Before I comment here, I've just scanned the last two or three pages of your gallery...you are really cruising at high speed. Now, for today's upload...it appears you've assembled layer upon layer but I do recognize this as a photo of a photo. This is really fun...I've zoomed in...and starred at the reflections to see what is going on. The two people must be behind you by a big plate glass window. So much detail to find here. But this has become one of your specialties...another form of light and glass. Well done!!!
a really interesting shot !
I do so enjoy the views the places that travel and can see the smiles around the world a trip warm hugs smile, Linda Kaye
Interesting image! :)
Beautiful shot!!
lol Tara... no I am glad you took this vacation and brought so many amzing shots back...and had fun, which is the main reason I am glad for you...smile
what? no mob man with tommy guns and all. wonderful shot here
How about Robinson Crusoe's man Friday? Or TGIF? Or Good Friday, Black Friday, or Joe Friday from Dragnet? And today is Friday. Mustn't overlook that bunch. In any event, a myriad of wonderful colors and reflections, on the cusp of abstraction, in this foto.
very interesting image.
this is cool !!! like much such shots!
Cool & very interesting image!
Excellent work!
I know they do the Seattle coffee up this way, but what Chicago and Milwaukee stuff so they have there??? Very nice shot. I guess I am going to have to come out that way and find out. LOL.
As long as I lived in MI, my fav coffee shop was Tim Hortons, and always trying to stay away from Starbucks... now, since I moved south, Starbucks is my only coffee brand...
As far as coffee goes, I prefer tea. :) But I love your reflection shots. I've become much more observant about reflections since seeing them. This one is so busy and full of life! Excellent capture! I have totally enjoyed all the "Chicago" shots I've seen. I look forward to Saturday.
