Chicago Views from the Odyssey

August 13, 2014

I took my “big” camera along on this trip with the plan that I would take pictures of the sunset, city lights, and the fireworks. This plan was not quite rational, because I had to photograph without a tripod from a moving boat under poor lighting conditions. A few pictures came out ok.

When the boat left the pier they ushered us into the dining room. I took sunset pictures through a window.

The Odyssey stopped inside the harbor to let us watch the fireworks from an outside deck. The fireworks started at 9:30.

Odyssey Ok, people. It is past 10 p.m. on a Wednesday night. Don’t you have someplace you will have to be tomorrow morning, work perhaps? You need your sleep. Go home already.
