Chicago at sunset, a photo from Illinois, Midwest

Photographer's Note

This was taken from the Best Buy parking lot. I had tried to get the double rainbow hitting the Sears Tower Earlier, but I just missed it after getting my camera. I did get this shot, which in truth is a far better shot. HDR enhanced.

Hello Hubert!

Nice shot... this looks very apocalyptic :D I really like the colors of the sky.

Nice job!

Hi Hubert
stunning visually due to the depth of each of the individual elements of the shot.
Very comic book end of the world stuff indeed
the sky i love the tonal elements of it but its waay too noisy. I dont see any iso rating on the info supplied was it shot at a really high ISO?
A trick i learned for pulling back sky noise is run over it with a blur brush in photoshop or app of choice
just lightly so its does not kill off the tones and feeling but just enough to kill off the pixelation

Very nice shot with a special mood and strange colors.

Some details, like the shadow in the light are like a painting.

I like it a lot.
