The Apprentice, a photo from Illinois, Midwest

Photographer's Note

Chicago's Trump International Hotel and Tower (left) having a conversation with its neighbors, a modern international style apartment building (middle) and a French Renaissance style adaptation, the Wrigley Building (right).

At first, many critiques derided the Trump Tower but for me, it's a fine addition to Chicago's skyline and it beats the squat ugly Sun Times building that it replaced.

Ken, nice vantage point and subjects, but the clouds really make the image, providing a dynamic backdrop to the towers. I also like how you've captured the Trump tower reflection in the center building.

Hello Ken,
awesome shot!The upward POV makes the Trump Tower seems as if it reached the sky.I like this strong graphical effect you achieved here.Is is HDR or is it just look like it?
Nice combination of different architectural styles.Chicago is really a great city.I hope I´ll be able to visit it again next year.
Best regards
Krzysztof
