Chicago

Here are some more photographs from our recent visit to Chicago.




The Chicago Theatre (and they even spell it properly!) is a really beautiful building with a fabulous marquee.

Chinatown

Here are a few images from our trip to Chicago. These are of our visit to Chinatown - a truly fascinating place....


China Square



The main gate to Chinatown


Two cultures


Woks - many of the shopkeepers asked that we didn't photograph in their stores, but this is from the very wonderful "Woks 'n' Things" on South Wentworth - it's an oriental Williams Sonoma, but with very much better prices!

All these were taken with the Leica M6/50mm Summicron on twelve year old Tri-X 400.
