  1. See the post below for more info about my trip to Chicago this past weekend.

    The Cloud Gate is one of the coolest things that I’ve seen in a very long time. It was amazing. I’ll probably be posting even better pictures of it on my Photoblog Breath of Life sometime in the near future if you are interested in seeing more.

    In the meantime feel free to head on over to my flickr page to see more Chicago photos:

  5. I love it – makes me miss Chicago even more! Happy Wednesday – we’re also hosting the Carnival of the Vanities today – busy day in duck-land!

  6. That is so cool. I live so close to Chicago and still need to take our family there.

  7. Yes, I’ve seen photos from it before and they’re always very very cool, like yours! Really creative done. I’d like to go there some day.

  8. Oh that is so cool- we live near Chicago and I have only been to the Bean ONCE! We are planning to head up there SOON. GREAT PIC!

  9. I love that gate. This is the first time I’ve seen it. I’ll have to visit it if I am ever in Chicago.

  14. Now that’s pretty darn cool. I think my kids would get a kick out of the underside kaleidoscope.

  16. This hands down is the coolist photos I have seen today! So cool, I like the one taken under! Very nice! Mine is up. Happy Wednesday!

  17. WOW! I’ve never even heard of that much less seen any pictures. That is awesome ~ I live a sheltered life. Thanks so much for sharing this!

    My WW is up.

  22. Wow! I’m speechless.
    Thanks for the sympathy and thanks too for your happy greetings. My sister-in-law was finally put to rest. Cremation took place yesterday. It was a very painful moment for all of us as she was loved by the family. However, when one loves someone, she/he must also learn how to let go.

  23. Oh wow! That is totally awesome! I wanna go and walk under the Cloud Gate! ‘Course, I think it might make me a bit dizzy… Well, dizzier than usual, that is. 😉

  25. I haven’t been to Chicago since I was a child. The city fascinated me then, and this would fascinate me now. Thanks for sharing!!

    I voted for you on BLOG VILLAGE, too.

  26. That is amazing! What a cool gate! Looks a little odd but I love the shots from underneath! If I’m ever in Chicago Im gonna have to remember that! My WW is up!

  32. Wow! I was hoping that you would all get a kick out of these photos but I never thought you’d like them as much as you appear too. The cloud gate was a fantastic site to see and for those of you that haven’t seen it yet you really need to visit it if you are ever in Chicago.

    You won’t regret your visit there. Plus, there was a Mariatchi (spelling?) band playing in the square near the Bean so I’m assuming that they have live music regularly during the warm months. The fountain was very cool too – they actually put up pictures of people that have visited the art museum nearby ON the fountain. Pictures of that coming soon too.

    Thanks for all your great comments. I’m very pleased that you liked the photos.
