Very proud to have this shot selected on both sites -- this is from a block party around Foster/Tripp that I passed on my bike. They were holding it in the alley, with everyone's garage doors open; it was a really cool sight and I knew it was one of the last "images of summer" I would get. Of course, the staggered layers of pennant streamers look really cool.
The little girl on the right, in a green shirt, while I was taking shots, she strolled up to me on her scooter, just staring at me while I worked. I think she either really really wanted me to get a shot of her, or she was wishing this stranger would leave the party :-)

Check out the Chicagoist page here. . . took this shot at a middle school at Kostner/Argyle. The B&W brings out all the subtle patterns and lines. I like the sense of order, repetition, and symmetry from the 4 basketball hoops on the brick wall.

Check out the Chicagoist page here. . . I was on another bike ride, down Wrightwood Avenue through Logan Square, and headed down the alley paralleling Wrightwood, and saw this scene. The homemade orange basketball hoop really stood out against the old plywood and earthtones , all against the blue sky.
Ceiling fan, 1230 N. Larrabee - featured on Chicagoist "Extra, Extra" 9/30/2010
Check out the Chicagoist page here. . . another series of shots I did at 1230 N. Larrabee. I really wanted to get a great shot of this room with the ceiling fan still remaining. It just seems a little off, or odd to me. I like the juxtaposition of human furnishings like a ceiling fan against the grit of the demolished concrete, steel rebar on the left.
