[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Chicago River is 156 miles (251 km) long, and flows through downtown Chicago. Though not especially long, the river is notable for the 19th century civil engineering feats that directed its flow south, away from Lake Michigan, into which it previously emptied, and towards the Mississippi River basin. This was done for reasons of sanitation. The river is also noted for the local custom of dying it green on St. Patrick's Day.

Bonjour,
Ta photo est très belle bien que le lieu soit un peu métalique. Cette netteté et cette luminosité rendent la pause surréaliste !
Belle oeuvre

Hi Jurgita.
This is a great picture of the River.
I like the positioning of the different bridges and how they are all in different positions of open to allow the boats to go through. You've got a great POV to capture this.
Well done.

Jurgita, is that HDR photo? Anyhow, colors are fantastic!

This picture look very beautiful for sharpness and colors. Which effect(sw) did you use ? Is it an HDR ?

Kaip tokiu oru darytai nuotraukai, rezultatas tikrai geras. Visos spalvos pakankamai tikrovisos, net sunku pastebeti kad tai HDR. Manau teko nemazai pasedeti su photoshopu.
