Weekends in Chicago

I've been back and forth between Detroit and Chicago lately and wanted to share some of captures from the last two trips. Let me know what you think.

Somehow the first shot is catching my eye, I like the off center and heavy shadows...

I guss its just a 'Working' title... not the city itself

I also like the guy on the skate board, more space to the left would be nice

I tried to avoid any obvious landmarks and instead just show the people I saw around town.

Armando, I agree about the framing of the skateboarder.  I almost didn't catch him as is, but of course sometimes we take what we can get.
