Description
It's been nearly a year since Tara and I took that memorable trip to Chicago. Who knew it would turn into the Ninja event of the photography world??? It IS pretty hard to ignore a crowd of camera toting people taking shots of the same things from so many different angles. This is just one of the 100's of fotos I took on that trip; I'll be posting them into the next millennium, I'm sure!! Which reminds me, I have fotos of that park as well!! lol

Fire escapes and shadows! So hard to resist. This is excellent. Beautiful framing by the tree, light, and all those lovely lines!
If the fire doesn't get you a heart attack will.lololol... Nice pov shot. Aloha
excellent work
Great stuff! I remember this place (and have a shot of it in my gallery) ... that's where we ran into the guy with the little dog. I think that dog was blurry, btw ... I got NO good shots of it. :P
Fab shadowplay!!
Love how the branches get in the way, looks like the one who took the photo didn't want to be seen :) lol it's just a thought I had looking at the image :) Amazing capture! Congrats
Classic fire escapes! I remember them well. Great capture!
We never had anything like this growing up in the land of one-story buildings in Southern California...the first time I saw fire escapes was in love with them. They still attract me for some odd reason. Love these old black steel ones, they have so much character!
We just don't seem to have them over here. I would love to walk up and down them! It would be heaps more exciting than being inside. Can people use them anytime, or is it strictly for fires only?
I love the structure, composition and the lighting is superb.
Excellent repetitive patterns, shadows and textures in this ninja capture, M.
Quite good shadows and lines
keep staring at the colors how they shine and fit in wonderful capture warm hugs, Linda
The shadows turn make this shot magical. Dana
Great shot. I like the way you framed this!
You'd best be in good condition to use this fire escape here. Nice shot. Aloha
Great capture! You picked up a lot of details.
It IS impossible to resist a good fire escape and shadow shot! This is such a cool shot and I keep looking around parts of Chicago, expecting to see the photo ninjas hovering around and snapping away. What I really like about this is how it brings that time 1 year ago back so firmly! That and this is a great photo too...I love that balcony...um...I mean fire escape! Well...they're smoker's balconies now, only you're not supposed to say that! Ah...urban life...ain't it grand? This is a great shot. Oh, and walking DOWN one of those fire escapes is fun, especially when you get to the bit on the counter-weighted gimbal-thingie...your weight takes you down to street level as your walking surface goes from horizontal to diagonal. It's a trippy, smooth feeling!
Great capture of the fire escape, looks wonderful!!
