contrasting winters

I am feeling better about my new website. And it might even inspire me to start sorting through all of my old photos! I took some photos in the Botanical Building in Balboa Park, San Diego days before heading to the arctic winter of Chicago (it was 1 degree F). These photos are back from 2009 but I would guess that it is still relatively warm in San Diego and cold in Chicago. But the SF Bay Area has been a nice middle ground (this is going to be my second "winter" here).

The flowers and greenery in December in Balboa Park couldn't have been more of a contrast to what awaited me in Chicago. I really enjoyed the trip to Chicago to visit my friend Heather. One thing I noticed about my photos with people as the subject was that they were all reflections. I don't know what that says about me, but definitely an interesting observation. I took some fun architectural tours and thus I took quite a few photos of buildings. The Chicago Public Library was a fun place to poke around. I liked the reflective bean so much that I went there on two different days. I was in Chicago again six months ago - I went to the bean again. I guess I am easily amused by reflections.
