Union Station Columns
I spent my Saturday evening walking the streets of downtown with a few friends, Chris Smith, Jason Mrachina, Brian Koprowski, Kyle Pozen and Eric (who I promise to learn your last name next time). We hit up a parking deck on Orleans between Hubbard &amp; Illinois then headed south on Canal Street, starting at the Kinzie Street Bridge (aka Shaky Bridge).  

This shot was taken outside the old Union Station Building just before I parted ways with group.  I'm still getting used to working with my 5D and having a full frame sensor.  This image was taken using my 15mm fisheye lens and is just one single image.  This sort of view on my old 7D would've only been achievable by stitching multiple images.  On a side note, there were some interesting elements surround the area where I was squatting down.  Apparently some of the night-time locals use this far corner behind the columns as their personal bathroom.  I'll spare you the details but the smell was awful and someone had left behind a present which Brian was kind enough to point out so I didn't step in it!  Fecal matter aside, it was a fun night with spent with some good people, lots of laughs and a few pictures too....
