Description
Another shot from that now-famous sunny September Saturday in Chicago.
It was a beautiful day, marred only by the fact that people had to leave. By 8:30 or so, our group of eight had been cut in half, and Chip, Corey, Marilyn and I were getting pretty hungry. We didn't want to make a big production out of getting dinner, and decided we'd just start walking and stop at the first place that served food.
We ended up on the 7th floor of the Water Tower Mall having fabulous pasta, kicking back, talking about our day.
We dubbed the glass elevator the "Warp Core" and I think we must have collectively taken about a million pictures of it.
Man ... what a great day!!

Cool shot - so many angles and reflections. Nice work
Fantastic! Look at all those planes...I wouldn't want the job of keeping it handprint-free, though! Beautiful!
Many layers - reflection. Very industrial, Clive
Wonderful image!!!
This is a visual feast for the eyes with all the light and reflections.
What a fabulous lift shaft Great colours and reflections Nice shot.
And we ate at the California Pizza Kitchen---how's that for irony????!! You know what else I remember about this particular dinner--after we were done, and took that warp core elevator down, we discovered the place was deserted and had a hell of a time finding our way out!! Hmmmm, a story for Chip, no doubt!! And yeah, wow, what a trip that was!!
I would have to have used the stairs or eaten alone. A marvellously confusing image!
Sounds like everyone had fun and great food! Aptly named section there! Somehow I hear the Chief Engineer saying, 'I've got to eject the Warp Core, Captain!'
Wonderful shot! :)
Before reading your comment I thought... Hmmm - I'm sure Tara had a field day with her camera in this place! Superb dear friend... everything about the image! :)
Fantastic structure, lovely golden colour, very lovely shot of this Tara well done!!
OH wow how lucky you were. I am always unlucky finding places to even get a good cup of coffee. A really wonderful capture with gglas and reflections in golden colors, Awesome.
High class shot Tara. Love the fancy warm glow.
Ah, more from the legendary Chicago shoot. Man that sounds like a blast - what a wonderful way to spend time - good friends, good photography, good food. It looks like you have every shade of gold in the known universe in that shot, Tara. And the couple of blue accents from the signs really adds pop to this photo. Great shot!
Excellent shot!
The way you've captured this it does look as if it might disappear into a worm hole at any minute. Wonderful reflections and lighting.
Beautiful capture tara. I like the tone and all the confusing angles and reflections.
awesosme view...
Matrix by geometry! spectacular!
Well seen!
Great light reflections on this glass and doors.. Just cool. I remember as a kid, running around and around these things till it made me sooooo dizzy!!! lol Good one.... Rob
What to say about this upload (Warp Core 7) after it has been so ably commented upon already? I could say something about the beautiful shades of golden color, the multiple reflections that lend a wonderful extra dimension and a just right POV or I could say, I just plain like this Tara-specialty, Light & Glass shot. By the way, you also might have titled this, "gravimetric field displacement manifold 7" (see I went and read the wiki on Warp Drive...what? Oh, of course there's a wiki on Warp Drive!) Nice work and a fine subject.
You know, I had no idea that there was a warp drive wiki, until I read Bill's comment! It figures, I found a Battlestar Galactica wiki too...but that's not too surprising. But anyway, onto this picture! WOW! WOW! WOW! I was too busy looking down the length of that thing to realize that you could look across at it too. Sometimes I wonder about myself. This is super-gorgeous! I love the reflections within reflections all suspended in translucent gold. I also love the feel of this photo: it brings back all of those warm memories, especially of the company. Too bad Kafka had decided to wander. He missed out, but oh well...at least he showed up again. I love this image, for itself, and for what memories it stirs up.
Amazing shot, well seen!!!
Wonderful light and distortion of light on glass.
Fantastic colors and reflections. Superb POV, an excellent shot!
Complicated lighting in this one and it must have been tough to snap this beautiful capture. I agree with Denise. Dana
Excellent shot...
Excellent structure, wonderful golden colours !!! A very lovely shot of this, Tara well done !!!
