Last weekend I spent some time going up and down to different levels of a parking garage that overlooked an intersection of some of CTA's elevated train tracks -- waiting patiently for trains to pass.

The parking garage was not well designed to get a picture from the corner. I climbed onto a planter box that was as close to the corned as I could get. It was chest high, and, as I reached out as far as I could with my camera, I wondered if it had been designed to hold a 170 lb. man leaning out as far has he could.
This did a bit better than I expected. Easily a new PB after 700+ challenges. Wow.

Whoa! Doing this one without a drone darn near gives me a panic attack! But wow! So close to an 8 score! I bet you had the rare privilege of seeing your score bounce around above 8 at times during voting!
Congratulations on the Blue & the PB, Mark. This is a classic & an instant fav. Pleasurable to look at for the tones, shapes, & lines -- & the variety of textures. Perfect for BW. Well done.
Wow very good indeed Mark. Now I am not sure if climbing on to that planter box could be described as very good but you lived to tell the tale:) Congrats!!
This has to be the Blue. The convergences/intersections/conjunctions are unmistakable, the perspective is amazing, the tones and focus are crisp. An easy 10 from me.
