LaSalle Street Photo

Photographer’s Note

A shot of LaSalle St in downtown Chicago, looking down the street toward the Board of Trade. The buildings are so tall and close together in downtown Chicago, that even during the middle of a sunny day, like when I took this picture, it is almost as dark as night at street level.

The building out of the street in the sunny light is very beautiful. The light and colors you caught are very successful. Well composed.

Belle perspective de rue dans une lumière de fin de jour alors qu'on est en plein jour. L'atmosphère de la ville est très bien rendue.
