Chicago


Chicago by night. (Click picture for larger view) Posted by Picasa
"I will go lose myself,
And wander up and down to view the city."
~ William Shakespeare (1564-1616)
The city never sleeps. Lights in the tall skyscrapers; workers cleaning offices, business men and women working round the clock, apartments with occupants fixing late suppers. Down below the streets with taxis, cars, honking horns, people walking alone and arm in arm; theater goers, delivery boys, policemen, waitresses returning home. The color of the city at night is dusky purple, mysterious; by day the color is gray, intertwining shades of gray. The city, always changing and yet, always the same.
