Do you like to shoot landscapes? This Is one of my favorite spots here in Chicago. Since there is not that much opportunities for me to shoot landscapes in the city I often venture to this botanical gardens. I’m always very excited to visit and photograph this place under various light conditions. Today was very cloudy and cold day. It wasn’t crowded because of the Thanksgiving holiday so I seized the opportunity to take some photos without any interruptions. Due to the lack of color and contrast infrared was my choice for todays shoot. It helped with both in my opinion. What do you think?

If you are wondering? Yes we are still in Chicago! If you already didn’t, go and check this place out right now. It’s beautiful in any season. This Japanese Garden is just one part of the Chicago Botanic Garden and it’s free all year round. There is always some kind of art exhibition going on and a bunch of activities at any time. It’s a perfect de-stress place. This frame is from the last large snow storm. What do you think?
