Reflections

Its Wednesday, so you know what that means...more wallpaper (i hope)! As a subsection of Grant Park in Chicago, they have created an "artsy" place called Millennium Park. Here they have some different attractions for tourists and the city folk. One such attraction is this giant bean, called Cloud Gate. Its basically a gigantic bean covered in fully reflective surfaces. Its pretty cool to see, but one of those things that takes about 1 minute to take in, and 30 minutes to get to.

There were people everywhere taking their picture in the bean, having their picture taken in front of the bean and so forth. Jenn and I took our picture in front of it (you can check it out in the Grant Park gallery on Picasa), but after we did that, we walked underneath of it, and I was able to get this shot. This is a shot directly up towards the center of the bean. I love the direct reflection in the very center, and then the complete distortion all around it. Enjoy!
