This is nice Matt. I like your view point and tones. It seems everything and everyone is frozen in time.

@bluechameleon: I walked past this and something made me turn around and take the photo..... another example of maybe how our inner eye / subconscious sees things.... another photo that means more to me well after it was taken

Bill from Belton, United States

What a marvelous vantage point from which to shoot. The tones are great.... the image does make one feel like they could be alone.

Classic style seems to me untemporal.

EstherK from Malaysia

I really like your POV here, Matt. I also like the atmosphere you captured, one of quiet in the city, as quiet as it can get before the days really starts. Great capture.

@EstherK: Thanks Esther. I was in a above the road crossover walkway. The window was heavily filtered which provided this mysterious old neg look.

There's a real 'old time' feel to this! Chicago in the 1920's

Great shot!
