From what I consider my part of Chicago’s lake front the northern ( well, northwestern ) skyline is my favorite. The Pink Hotel is a Chicago icon. It’,s Deco architecture is beautiful and is a result of its original purpose as a beach resort giving a maximum number of units with a view of the lake. Is the pink reference to Florida colors? It is certainly not a local color like it is for the southeast coast. It is a joy to to look at. A cut gem with so many facets. It is one of my favorites , as if you couldn’t tell. By the time I got to Foster Beach ,this day, I had lost the light that I came out for. The sun was low on the horizon. I had my tripod but my hands were cold and I kind-of half heartedly took this photo hand held since what light I had left was diminishing fast plus it seemed to flat to make into a good image to be worth the extra effort. I was wrong and am incredibly pleased with this photograph…the way the hotel rises out of the shadows to sparkle in the last light. It makes me think about history, my history here in Chicago and how grateful I am to be here with its trials and blessings.

Living on a Sphere~

Today’s image made me stop and remember something simple, yet deeply profound: we are living on a sphere. Not just any sphere — one that is spinning, moving, breathing life into every one of us. And it’s not just Earth. Every planet, every star, every drop of water — all take part in this mysterious dance of roundness, of wholeness, of completion. The circle has always carried a potent…

.red memory. - Another from the archives, I enjoyed the dimsums as much as the vibe of this place. I miss going out for dinners, snacks, a stroll by the river. Wishing these cravings will be satisfied again and soon. - - - #citylifeworld #lr_texture #bangkokspirit #throwback🔙 #total_through #discoverunder5k #dailylifestyle #dimsums #smoke #nightphotography #nightlife #thailand #rivercity #contemplativephotography #deceptive_cities #fromthearchives (at Feng Zhu เกี๊ยวซ่าหน้าเปิด) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-g6DALFv1m/?igshid=ax1oxal3d59j

Lights under the new “lL” viaduct over Argyle Street.

Why did I return to this after considering this and moving on. The lights reminded me of a childhood game, Pan Kai. But shapes on a grid was not enough to interest me. I took the picture for later consideration. Even though the lights are the major compositional element I did go out of my way to make sure everything was in focus even the deck. It is the structure underneath that seems to be important. Much like architecture, contemplation has structures that support it. St. Teresa of Avila connected the abandonment of this kind of prayer to education, in particular, the interior work of knowing oneself: “For such persons don’t reflect that there is an interior world here within us”.

Walking the Conveyor Belt~

Today’s image was taken some time ago at Tiger and Turtle Park in Duisburg, Germany. I came across it again during my editing and it felt perfectly in line with the thoughts I have been sitting with these days. The industrial revolution gave birth to incredible advancements—speed, efficiency, productivity. But it also ushered in something else: a rhythm of life that often feels mechanical,…
