Photo Essay #14: Looking up in Chicago

In for Out of Chicago
I am so privileged to be able to attend this year’s Out of Chicago summer conference, in, you guessed it, Chicago. It’s a 2½ day gathering of photographic enthusiasts and pros, where we get together, network, learn from the best and most importantly, get out and shoot! Chicago is really a photogenic city unlike any…
