The 1st one is very colorful Hayward, I like your compositon on the 2nd one, very well done!
Does the river there freeze over? Is that why you say until next year?
Thanks for sharing these
Michael.

I love the energy of Michigan Ave. Not that I have a vast knowledge but I once had a 3-hour layover at O'Hare so I hopped on the "L" and went down to Michigan Ave, walked around for an hour and then back out to the airport with 5 minutes to spare. I loved the adventure! And I especially love the gazebo shot for beauty but the other two for the energy!

Terrific pictures, I particularly like the last one of the open bridge and the boats.
