Chicago from a Chopper
Upcoming Chicago Party
On January 2nd, we have our Chicago Book Party. You can see more information there or sign up on the Facebook Event Page.
Free talk in New York on Dec 15th at B&H Photo - A Firehose of HDR
See the photo below? One of the most common questions I get is
"How do you make an HDR out of a single photo?" Well, I'll
go over that and more on Dec 15th at noon at the Incredible B&H
Photo in New York. You can get more New York B&H event info here.
Also, you may know that B&H is a partner of Stuck in Customs -- I recommend you buy from them on my Digital SLR recommendations page.
Daily Photo - Chicago from a Chopper
Chicago is an awesome city and I always have a good time there. This
time of year, it gets a bit cold... and if you don't have a good coat
pre-buttoned before you go outside, well, that's a big mistake.
I have a good friend there that arranged a helicopter for me in Chicago and took the door off! I hung out for a few hours battling the backwash as we circled the city and flew in and out of the buildings. This is one of the shots from that series, and I hope you enjoy looking at it as much as I did shooting it!

You say that Chicago is an awesome city, and I could not agree more.
I have had the good fortune to make a couple of quick business trips there many years ago. On one of them, I was forced to stay an extra day because of a change in travel arrangements.
Spent the time wisely just walking around and absorbing the ambience. Would love to see it again.
