Thanks for the comments.

My wife was interviewing for a job in Chicago and our new son and I took a stroll by the lake. Loved the shadows here and thought there was some potential in B&W. In color it's a bit boring to be honest.

Still don't know if she got the job, but it was an interesting time, and this photo means I'll always be able to recall it.

Gorgeous image. Sorry we did not hook up on your trip. You could have taught me a few things. Good luck to your wife on the job.

Beautiful. Especially struck by how the branches tickle the horizon on the right side of the frame.
