There were several of these kinds of infinite depth items; the previous yellow photo is another example. However, this installation was different, there were more than a dozen of these cubes stacked on each other, and the blue lights’ activity was somewhat responsive to the people passing by. It definitely reminded me of something futuristic, like maybe it represented the vastness of space.

We took the girls to the WNDR Museum – which if you’re not sure what that is, you should think “Instagram/Snapchat scenes”. It was honestly really cool; and several of the art installations were very well done. Each of the girls found a couple of rooms that they really enjoyed interacting with.

Some of my favorite images over the years have been my more abstract images and the images with a strong use of negative space. The “bird’s wings” floating in the void of the blue sky was absolutely beautiful on the day of our visit, and I also enjoy the simplicity of the monochrome image.

Anytime that I visit a location for a second or third time, I want to take photos that are unique to each visit. Which means that with each visit the photos get more challenging but the images get more inventive. The intersection of lines in the pavilion is full of unique images and surprises.

Each glass facade was a different shade, with the 3rd panes being pink. Overall the exhibit was simple and yet delightful; I’m not one for reading into art, but I definitely enjoyed viewing and attempting to capture the Icebergs uniquely.

There are always new views and angles at the Milwaukee Art Museum. The spire that supports the suspension bridge is such an understated portion of this entire building. The simplicity of those understated lines leads to the entire building’s exceptional beauty.

Can 16 pieces of glass arranged in 4 identical sets be photogenic?

After seeing a few fellow photographers capture this installation, I wanted to see the abstract art. I have photographed Calatrava’s Quadracci Pavilion before, and I really enjoyed integrating that architecture with “Iceberg”.

I think most boys who grew up in the 1980s had a poster of the Countach on their wall, or they at least had a friend who had that poster on their bedroom wall. So it came as a surprise to see an obviously-not-from-the-80’s Countach at the Auto Show. As it turns out, Lamborghini sold a hybrid supercar and in honor of the 50th Anniversary of the original Countach, they gave this new hypercar that classic name. The styling is reminiscent of the original, and the new Countach looks even cooler in person!

I love taking photos of cars, but I’m not that much of a mechanical car guy; however, I do recognize the “Lingenfelter” name and was happy to talk with the owner of this beautiful Camaro with a very unique paint color.

2025 Ford Mustang GTD, 2024 Chicago Auto Show
According to my notes, this was my 8th trip to the Chicago Auto Show to take photos. The show is much smaller than in previous years, but there’s always cool lines to photograph!

I can’t imagine being a bird and needing to put my tiny feet in the cold cold snow.

Nature always has such a delightful way of displaying her beauty. As the steam slowly lifted off of the river water and wafted over the shoreline ice, it would condense into these wonderful abstract stars. What a subtle display of beauty on a brutally cold morning.

I drive past these wide open fields every morning, and in the winter they are typically very boring. But on Friday morning, the fog was perfect; just dense enough to conceal the horizon, and just thin enough to show the small patches of forest in the middle of the flat fields.
