A truly terrific pic which I'm afraid, Bill, that I can't look at for long......

Very nice picture of Chicago and very little traffic. Was it taken late, late at night?

Ooh! What a nice photo. Looks like you're hovering over the street. You've really succeeded in capturing the night time atmosphere in this one. The nearly empty street, the "yellow" lights lighting the buildings from below, the interiors in the building to the right. And the reflection of the wall and doorway to your room in the upper right part of the window pane you've taken the photo through. There's a LOT of atmosphere in this. Reminds me of when I was living near New York (on the way homewards), or visiting San Diego (Grant Hotel). Is this color film, or a digital photo? Night photos with film often give an exaggerated yellow tint (see street color), or, is this digital with a yellow tint, or are the street lights yellow halogen lights (easier on the eyes)? Keep up the good work. :-)

Are you sure this was taken from the window as I also suspect this was a ledge shot. Very impressive capture Bill :-)

Stellar POV and perspective in this stellar night capture, Bill. Considering the age of the hotel, did you have electricity and running water?

Do you know, I don't think I ever looked out that side of the window! One of you guys were always standing there, or we were all sitting around yakking. All my shots were from the larger window. This is absolutely outstanding! It really does look as if you're hanging out over the street. VERY nicely done!
