Wrigley Building In The Fog

Normally we have a long, clear view from my office building but last Thursday it was like our floor was enveloped entirely in a cloud. You could barely see across the street, let alone our normal eastern views down Navy Pier and out on the lake. To the south, the Wrigley Building was barely visable at times.

The trees on Michigan and around the downtown/loop area have little white lights on them for the upcoming holidays.

Several people were gathered watching the painter in the window. Most people moved on and I stayed and took a few photographs. The man in the orange shirt in the background saw me and said something to the painter who turned around and waved to me with his paintbrush. Caught off guard, I gave an embarrassed wave and hurried along.

At Millennium Park the Ice Rink is ready but not open yet. Cloud Gate is hard to photograph in the dark. I think I need to bring my tripod.
