Millennium Park - Cloud Gate 48

Posted by greg (Denver, United States) on 10 February 2008 in Art & Design and Portfolio.

My second posting of what I still feel is the coolest artwork of its kind I've ever come across... I think I took 3,031,054 pictures of this thing... maybe less... I'm not sure... but this is one of them...

I think it is an incredibly cool shot. Nice angle and reflection. Perfect clarity. The bean is an amazing piece of art and excellent photo spot. No matter how many photos you take I am sure there is another way to view this. I wish to be there with my own camera. Take one more photo for me please.

@Barbara: The "bean" is like Lay's Potato Chips... you can't take just one... :)

It will be back often here...

How did I miss the posting of this photo? OOPS! I've seen so many more photos taken with many more interesting vantage points (than mine) and yours did not let me down! Great shot with the skyline in the background!
