Yup great set indeed, just a couple of points in one I would crop out the bins etc on the right and in 3 I would crop out the lady on the right, minor points though. :judge: :judge: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

:agree: - with everybody. I really like the series and I also think those minor points would make the photos even better. Maybe in #1, if you're going to do some cropping, straighten it a bit first? #2 might benefit from the same thing. (I notice the straightening thing mostly because I have to do so much of it on my own photos ;) )

103 floors up! Makes my puny 35 story high apartment building feel small. ;)

Maybe I should go off to the 118 story high building they have here in HK just to show off a little. ;)

Haven't been on the El in years... which is fine with me! LOL - seems to be as much lovely haze there as here. Nice shot of the tracks going into the city. I like the bit of snow on the tracks going off into the distance, getting the buildings at varying heights. Trying to think which building is now the Willis, remember seeing something about one of those being renamed.

I rode the elevator up the Sears tower... Most memorable as we were all pushed into the elevator and somebody didn't take a shower. My eyes water just thinking about it - no I'm not being sentimental... :rofl: :rofl:

Great series Rob. Thanks for the lift.
