Hi, I'm Marilyn.  I've been posting here on RR for a few years now and thought it was time to update my profile.  It's been wonderful learning so much from the amazingly talented people here.  I've had the chance to meet many in person and some have become great and good friends.  Starting with a Kodak Brownie camera when I was about 7 or 8, moving up to Instamatics, Polaroids, then the Pentax K1000 that really got me on the way, I've been looking at the world thru a lens for a long time.  Got the bug honestly; my dad was a photographer and gave me the gene!!  Digital changed the world and I jumped in with both feet.  You would've gone thru 100's of rolls of film in one day the way we can shoot and delete all day long.  Progess...it can be awesome sometimes.
At any rate, RR rocks, the talent is over the top and I'm just gonna keep on shooting!!
Thanks for looking and keep those cameras rollin'!!
peace.....marilyn

This is wonderful! We all got such different shots of this. I love your version!

WOW! Jeez, I live here and scarcely even see stuff like this! I do on occasion, but you really caught that golden/peachy sunset glow throwing the more grungy parts of the city into full-on shadow. WOW! I love the color, the light was that intense and almost buttery, and I also love the way you caught it coming through those frosted glass globes on the street lights. This rocks in so many ways. And on top of it all, it was taken on one of the most fun days here!

Love the golden light; it paints the drab structures with mystery...Well captured!

You know there are so many things we all got shots of, but they all turned out so differently. This is a great capture. Awesome shot.

Proves you don't need landscape vista's for a great sunset image...

Yaaaaaay!!!! A post of something I remember so vividly. The sight itself was spectacular, everyone armed with a camera just stopped dead in their tracks and started snapping away, fortunately we weren't in the middle of the street at the time, or the traffic would've had to wait! I don't think a bad picture through the buildings could've been taken, everything was awash with a beautiful orange glow. This is a great shot, I know Cheri was cackling like a mad woman when we stopped for this, but I haven't seen what she got yet. At least she wasn't frothing at the mouth this time.

Well done Marilyn. Isn't it fun to begin to see the Chicago photos of others. Each of us has a vision of the way things are...rarely is it the same.
