First of my new weekly updates after a few months absence from the blog, and continuing with the Chicago set of photos from last years visit. Still have about 20 photos to process which I hope to get through over the next few weeks, so I can share them and also get to Boston. At the same time I also started doing the first editing pass at the images from this Summers trip through the Highlands of Scotland, next week I will include a sneak peek.

The "L" ride in Chicago was one of the highlights of the days we spent there. Although the weather was miserable it got me some very moody photos of the old stations. A day later and I was able to get beautiful blue skies with some streaky white clouds when visiting the parks by the lake.
