When I set out for a short trip to Chicago exactly one week ago, I told myself to blog at least once or twice while away. A feat much easier said than done when going on these business trips, since all day long it is one event after the next up until returning to your hotel room at about 10:30 p.m. every night. The only time I could even break out of the routine to take a few pictures was on the Saturday of my arrival. The plane arrived about one hour early, putting me in the windy city at about 9 a.m. Needless to say, The Palmer House Hilton would not let me check-in until much later. I found this photo opportunity while wondering around to burn time - a stainless steel structure displayed in the Millennium Park. I was there just after lunch when there were troves of tourists, so I went to set the place super early morning (about 5 a.m.) a couple days later. The security guards kept challenging me, telling me to come back at 5:30. Had scheduled a workout and breakfast meeting, so that was not going to work. Oh well, I have been to Chicago many times and will probably go a few more - maybe next time.
One thing to note about time... In preparing for the early morning shoot that was not, I did not take the time to check for the sunrise time. An early morning shoot in Japan could happen at 5:00 to 6:00 a.m. very easily, but notice that the sun did not rise in Chicago until just a little after 6:00 a.m. Which has led me on a quest for a application for the iPhone that will tell me the sunrise/sunset time as well as the weather.
Found
this watch while spending eleven grueling hours on the flight back, and hope to find one in stock at a local store. However, would like to have this with a world time clock.
