Wow, this is a great night shot also. The lights and clarity are great. I like how the cityscape in the reflection vanishes to the right.

Like how the snow on the Bean looks like clouds. Great capture.

Ooooooh! WOW! I absolutely love this. Been to Chicaog before but never saw this bean (I have to say that I was always working). I think it is even better with the golden Christmas lights and you captured this at the right time to get a very nice complementary sky color.

I love the backdrop as much as your subject. Great composition. The snow adds a nice touch to the darkness of the night shot.

This is just awesome. The reflections, the colors, the lights - all amazing. Well seen and photographed.

So great. The clumps of snow look like islands in the sea. The bean looks like a big ol world globe with little clumps of islands.
OK, I'll go take my delusional meds now. LOL

Oh I really want to see this!! I love this photo, so clear and the bits of snow stuck to the bean are really cool.

Story: My brother-in-law and his wife went to Chicago a couple of months ago to shop. When they got back I asked if they had seen the Bean, they had no idea what I was talking about! I showed them some pics on the internet and they said they didn't go to that area. I can't believe some people.
