[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I know that this shot isn't of high quality, but I wanted to share this. The trangle building is the prison inside the city of Chicago. And you can see prisoners upstairs walking around. This was kind of strange to me. In the background you can see Sears Tower, the highest building of the USA.
Near by the Prison I ate the best pizza ever.

Quality is not always important; it helps a picture but does not make it.
Here is the note strong and very helpful
I would not guess it in my life that this is a prison

I can see the next Hollywood title coming

Escape from Chicago.

Who knows

Thanks.

Hi Nino,
Very strange also to me - the building, not the pizza thing ;) - neither I could ever immagine that this is a prison.

Hi Nino,
This building's shape and architecture give it a very strange movie -liek feeling, you almsot expect stallone to jump out of it. AMazing that they have a prison that big in the middle of town, I think that the deaitls of the photo are well shown. Regards
Daniel

Hi Nino
There are two elements in this photo and I like the portrayal of both of them
I knew about the Sears Towers when I saw this photo as i had seen this documentary on the Nat Geo few days ago .... and secondly the highrise prison in the downtown was something that i had unheard of ... very surreal scene and you have captured it well ... congrats

This certainly is the strangest prison I ever saw. Very interesting picture. I'll be back.
