Ran out to this spot to take a photo of the ice. As soon as I got to it my feet were frozen solid. I snapped around 5 photos and ran back to a sandwich shop a bit of a ways away to thaw out my feet. After about 30 mins or so, I thought about how cool a night shot of this would be. So naturally I ran back again to take another 5 shots or so, before running back to the sandwich shop again to regain the feeling in the blocks of ice that once were my feet. I ended up not liking any of the night ones I took, but got this one on the first attempt out. The things we do for a picture. It’s cold out there Chicago, be safe, but be gnarly.
One of my favorite spots in the city. Great shot! I cant bring myself to go outside haha
Wow Brandon! This is insanely beautiful.
I’d say that’s a gnarly shot mayne!

Has the river frozen over? We took a great architectural cruise there back in September.
Great!
lovely photo! ☀
The sacrifice was worth the shot
Favorite shot of the city, nice work!
Agreed. My friend and I roamed around a park this morning. It was fun for the most part. Anything for photography and the gram.
This is beautiful. This needs more likes.
So worth it!
@kat_inthe_hat3 your favorite view 🙂
Totally worth it! Thanks! As a former Chicagoan now living in Texas, I always like to see what the winters are doing up there without me. Gotta say I don’t miss those super frigid days one bit–but they certainly can be beautiful. 🙂
Great work
Man…….yeah.
But when you get the shot you want, you forget how cold you were
Your photos are so beautiful!
Lol same thing happened to me today. Didn’t like any of the ones I took outside.
