The last of the winter storm hit during my lunch break. This is the Adams St bridge (again), looking east though. I felt desaturating this image brought out the snow better than leaving it in color.

Looks like it was really coming down! Black and white makes it look even colder!

Very nice! And I love that little "tower" on the bridge, it looks out of place among the big city buildings but it's cute.

I like this - defnitely provides a look into the nasty stuff Chicago sees in the wintertime. Works very well in B&W, in my opinion. Very nice composition as well.

Another Chicago guy - hope to see you at some of the GTG's when it gets warmer!

Lovely weather we have been having here, eh?

This pic has an old school effect beacuse of the B&W treatment. Nice touch.

I like the b&w, and the snow (especially since it is there and not here!) Nice shot.

Great B&W. Watched WGN news and saw what a mess you had. Very good shot.

Oh I LOVE this one!! It looks so urban. Yet the snow makes it look so fresh. I love winter so much! This is really awesome.

Oh, I like this. It captures the day very well. I was battling the elements yesterday. It was quite horrible Tuesday all day and Wednesday morning.

That's a terrific capture of how a storm looks and feels. I like the composition a lot.

BRRR! Desat totally works and makes it look really inclimate. Love the cityscape. Good shot!
