It was not easy for me to make my mind about what was going to be the main object in my photo here – the flowers or one of the most beautiful skyscrapers in Chicago – The Carbide and Carbon Building, also know as the Champagne building. The skyscraper got it’s own space in the end. *smile
Photo is taken from Grant Park .. in July 2012. One of my favorite shots again. Chicago is a city full of unusual view points and because of that it has become my favorite big city with bright lights.

Thank you so much for the plingback. *smile
those are gorgeous. Are they in your yard or on your walks?
Terry, the photo is taken in Chicago … told the story in the post *smile
I love the snap of the colors in front of the plain of the white and lightness of the sky.
Thank you, Colleen … it has become one of my favorite shots too – the skyscraper got it’s own space. And the flowers wasn’t that high, but here they look massive.

“Chicago, Chicago- a wonderful town….” But not as wonderful as NYC I’m hoping. One last farewell hug 🙂
Chicago .. beats NYC with horse lengths. *smile
If it hadn’t been for my birthday being on 9th Sept and NYC is the only place to be on that day … in US. Going hug to you. *smile
Early Happy Birthday greetings 🙂
Thanks a million!!!!! At last an official Swedish pensioner.. with a sorry ass. *smile
Smile nicely and ask the air stewardess for extra cushions 🙂 🙂
I wish it had helped … but I will take an extra lucky pill … so I will be high up in the sky the whole trip.

Sunflowers are out of this world, totally amazing – and it doesn’t matter if they are situated in front of an unusual building or just by themselves.
You did it once again, my dear – great photo!
Have a safe trip and E N J O Y xo 🙂
Damn I love that yellow. Love, love it.

I just took my own sunflowers photos in Grant Park 2 days ago. Gorgeous setting, huh?
Heather, sitting in London just now …. never seen this much people on any airport before and this terminal is only British Airways … nobody stays at home.
Love yellow flowers … it’s like having the sun here on earth. Looking forward to see your catch. *smile … Say hello to Chicago for me.

It is surprising sometimes how the composition of a photo can enhance the beauty of not only nature but a man made object as well… I love this photo… there is obviously something about Chicago that you love… never been there but it is getting more of a wishlist feeling from your posts…
Let me put this way … there is nothing I don’t love about Chicago …. not what I have seen anyhow.
Fantastic city … art, parks, water … flowers, fountains, skyscrapers, outstanding food.
This photo has become one of my favorites … I love yellow flowers it’s like having the sun here on earth.
Thanks for you always so fantastic support.
Truly an unusual point and beautiful too!! 🙂
Happy weekend, Viveka! xx
Thank you so much … and the same to you, Marina!
I love yellow and red flowers.
Cheerful and dramatic Viveka. Hope this sets the tone for your holiday. Happy Birthday in advance 🙂
Thanks, Madhu.
