I took this image in Chicago this past week with my new Canon G11. I had it set on auto since I was handholding and wasn't very concerned about DOF since most of my images were taken at a distance with few foregrounds. This was a trial time with the camera and I must say it performed very well.
This city is a wonderful place to experiment with compositions since it is an unending source of interesting buildings old and new. I had to get my head adjusted to shooting architecture. After a few hours I was getting the eye.
Kerry Perkins gave me a few tips and I visited the few he recommended.(thanks Kerry) I went with another couple so I couldn't time the best lighting and had to be opportunistic.
Highly recommend the boat ride around the city. You will have views you couldn't get otherwise.
