A Trip to Union Station
Chicago happens to be one of my favorite cities. One of the reasons I’ve grown so fond of it is because of its relative nearness to where I live. I can hop an Amtrak train from Elkhart, Indiana in the morning, then spend the day walking around, taking pictures. Then take a return train that evening. It also means that some of the photographs can be taken after dark, an excellent time for urban pictures. I focused this visit on Chicago Union Station and the area around it.
Each of these photographs are linked to my Flickr account. By clicking on it, you go to the Flickr website and my photostream. These were taken on 11 September 2014. When spring arrives, I’m planning another trip.
