The Ornate Brown Buildings Of Old Town Chicago Glow In The Red Hues Of Sunset

Photography is all about being at the right place, at the right time, and of course having the right camera settings to capture that moment in time. It happens quite often that the moment is very fleeting, such as the time of sunset. So while The Wild Images Team was out all day exploring the streets of Chicago, Illinois, at the moment of sunset we happened to come across the DuSable Bridge view of the best buildings in the entire downtown: Old Town Chicago. On The left is the Wrigley Building with its iconic clock tower. To its right and behind is the InterContinental Chicago Hotel. To the right of this and in front is the Tribune Tower. Each of these buildings are designed with very ornate and beautiful architecture, in contrast to the more modern, sleek glass and metal designs of other buildings in the downtown. The red light of the sunset just catches the tops of the buildings, and adds a warm glow to this historic view. The Wild Images Team has captured many other photos throughout downtown Chicago, including the blue skyscrapers of The Grant and One Museum Park, which is available for sale in our store. Blog posts from Chicago have documented the view of the Wabash Avenue elevated train, the ornate art deco brown buildings of old town Chicago, the interesting curious foxes of the small green space, when The Wild Images Team Coordinator Christina sat at the stone desk, the hidden colorful fire escape framed by trees, the day The Wild Images Team finally found the heart of Chicago, the moment when giant headless zombies took over Grant Park, and at the head of the Navy Pier where sits the bronze sculpture Captain On The Helm. Blog posts from the nearby state of Minnesota include the moment that The Wild Images Team Coordinator Christina becomes the Jolly Green Giant, the moment that The Wild Images Team Coordinator Christina becomes the Little Green Sprout, and a scene of The Wild Images Team Coordinator Christina underneath a life size Jolly Green Giant. Blog posts from the somewhat nearby state of Texas include the art created by the line of sunken monuments at Cadillac Ranch and the textures created by thick layers of paint covering the monuments at Cadillac Ranch. A blog post from nearby state of Missouri includes the Route 66 sign of The Uranus Fudge Factory.
