Thought of the day: I
think I am in love with this city. The people,
interesting; The street scenes, entertaining; The architecture, fascinating;
The evening lights, dazzling. It’s a heaven for photographers of all kinds - portrait, architecture, street, night, and even wedding photographers can all find
something to point their lenses at. After getting used to a place as quiet
as Boulder, the vibrant night scenes of Chicago are particularly
striking to me. The neon sign of Chicago Theater, the live broadcast of 7
News that can be viewed from outside of the tall glass walls, the
watery reflections of skyscrapers on Chicago River, the magnificent
night view of the entire city from the top of Skydeck of Willis
(formerly known as Sears) Tower - all of these created an indelible
memory not only on my camera, but also in my mind. I think one of the
many benefits of living in a town like Boulder is that I can be completely in awe of a big city like Chicago whenever I have a chance
to visit. Boulder provides a solid home base for me to explore and
appreciate the magnificence of the rest of the world - it’s as indispensable as the
rice in a Chinese meal or the bread in a western fare. At this moment I’m enjoying Chicago,
thoroughly and without reservation, as I know that I will be happy when I get home too.
