Challenge: Free Study 2009-03 (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Nikon D80
Lens: Nikon AF Zoom-Nikkor 18-135mm f/3.5- 5.6G ED DX
Location: Millennium Park
Date: Mar 26, 2009
Aperture: f/4.2
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/160
Date Uploaded: Mar 31, 2009

 Shot this the other day when wandering around Millennium Park. The mirror sculpture is called "Cloud Gate", but known to Chicagoans as "The Bean".

Didn't shoot at an ideal time of day, but used a polarizer to deepen the skies. The black and white treatment looked better to me.
