It seemed like a good morning for a walk on the long uninterrupted waterfront here in windy Chicago. The cold spray was unanticipated, but the feeling that we came away with after sharing the moving, wet expanse was definitely worth it.

We arrived at Navy Pier as it was getting dark. I had just loaded my LC-A+ with Fuji T64, what was I thinking?

The first of 3 major art museums on a single trip - I was eager to see American Gothic and all kinds of impressionist treasures.

Home of the skyscraper, ferris wheel and shredded wheat, this city has some of the most amazing, mouth dropping architecture in the world. It also has some of the most unpredictable weather to go with it.

I've been working at the Empty Bottle as a freelance sound tech for a few years now. Working there has been wonderful and I've had the opportunity to take a whole bunch of pictures. Enjoy!

By now you know my story: July 2009, 8000 km road trip, 3 generations, 1 van. Crazy? Yes. Lomographically limited? In no way whatsoever! I took along 10 cameras and 40 rolls of film. We passed through 10 American states and 3 Canadian provinces, and did I already mention how much walking we did in Chicago?

I took the fastest elevator I'd ever been on, with my father-in-law and son, only to "meet" David Schwimmer on the 94th floor...

Coming from Australia, the chance to drive to places in the States, like Chicago, still seems weird to me. I challenged myself by only taking film cameras on the trip and was shattered when I received back all the black-and-white rolls from my Holga, which in one view had been ruined by the lab. I now think that the dust spots, scratches, and chemical marks all add to the photos' charm making them look even more vintage.

One of the things I miss most about Chicago is the awesome public transportation, and the "L" can really get you anywhere you need to go. It is the equivalent to a subway system, except it is above ground for most of the tracks. It's the best way to go on an adventure, and also the best way to get lost! This is a good thing.

Parecía que iba a hacer una estupenda mañana para salir a caminar por el muelle de este ventoso Chicago. El roción frío causado por las olas fue un imprevisto, pero la sensación de querer salir huyendo después del hartón de humedad y constante ajetreo, hicieron que mereciera la pena

I had never stepped foot in Chicago until June 2006. I lived and worked there for four months. It was love at first sight. From the moment I stepped off the plane the people, the architecture, the lake, the views, the history enchanted me. It was pure unadulterated magic. I lived in Wrigleyville but a girl needs her space from time to time and the best place for me to be alone was the busiest place in Chicago: Downtown. Bustling streets filled with people and noise was the perfect place for me to lose myself.

I don't really remember the exact moment in time that I became a Cubs fan. I think it was when I was in middle school in my hometown in Utah. I would come home from school, turn on the television looking for something to watch. Cable television was a bit of a rarity at this time, so there was a lot to choose from.

I was at a conference for a few days near the O'Hare airport. Like a lot of large cities, Chicago's airport is quite a trip from downtown Chicago, and thrifty travelers know the best way from O'Hare to downtown is on the Blue Line.

Eines der Dinge, die ich am meisten an Chicago vermisse, ist das großartige öffentliche Verkehrsnetz.
Die 'L' bringt dich wirklich überall hin, wo du hin willst. Es ist das Äquivalent eines U-Bahn-Systems, nur dass die meisten Linien über der Erde liegen. Es ist der beste Weg, auf Abenteuertour zu gehen, aber auch der beste, um sich zu verirren!
Allerdings ist das auch ganz gut so...

For the past two years my boyfriend and I have flown from Central Point, Oregon to Chicago, Illinois in order to attend the 3-day long festival known as Lollapalooza. Besides getting to see many of our favorite bands (NIN, Radiohead, & Pearl Jam to name a few) we were able to experience the very exciting and very green city of Chicago.
