Description

Chicago's Buckingham Fountain in Grant Park dedicated in 1927 and modeled after Latona Fountain at Versailles, France. This was another target of opportunity shot in a hurry from the passenger seat in our moving car. Bill:)

Great image. I suspect half the city gets wet on a windy day.

Great capture, especially from a moving vehicle! You're showing me a Chicago I've not seen before. Everyone wants us to see the waterfront ... I'm so happy to see other pieces!

You got this type of shot down to a science! Another awesome capture and I can see the actual size in this because you have enough in the shot to give comparison.
