This weeks image was captured at Chicago’s Millennium Park and shows the stainless steel mirrored cloud gate sculpture with a backdrop of Chicago’s famed skyscrapers. The cloud gate was a photographers dream, with many different shooting angles, that gave off all kinds of different reflections of the surrounding buildings.
The cloud gate was designed by Indian born British artist Anish Kapoor, and was inspired by liquid mercury. The sculpture has also won many design awards. I captured the image back in December 2004, and I’m actually quite proud of this one. I didn’t have the SLR with me, and this image was taken with a small pocket camera that what would now be valued at less than $100.
