Chicago River

This was taken on a tour boat on the Chicago River.

Unless there is something specific you want I'll just say that I like it. I like the lighting and you took it at a good point in the day. The horizon is not completely straight but that doesn't bother me that much. I lived in Chicago for a few years. Great city and a great one for taking pictures. Was this the architectural boat tour? I loved that boat ride. Nicely done.

You caught the scene at exactly the right time and have framed it very nicely with leading lines drawing my attention to the building at the rear.

I played with the image just a bit in Photoshop:

1. Straightened the horizon - it only needed one degree counter-closkwise

2. Changed the perspective so the buildings at the side were not leaning into the image

3. Cropped a bit of the water at the bottom out of the image

4. Surrounded the image with a very simple border.

How do you like it?
