Chicago Cubs Baseball 2008 -Go Cubs- Wrigley Field Photos
I know this doesn't necessarily relate to black and white photography, I'd like to share a video my son made for me. It is a Wrigley Field video that consists of my photographs that I have taken over the years.
The pictures of Wrigley field range in date from the early 1980's to 2007. In the video you will find an image of the Wrigley field marquee during the Chicago Cubs first night game on 8-8-88. You will also get a view inside the ballpark during an interleague game between the Chicago Cubs & New York Yankess.
These photos and more are all presented with an audio clip of the late Harry Caray singing the famous Cubs 7th inning stretch.
Black & White Wrigley Field Photo
This is a great aerial, black and white photo of Wrigley Field which gives the stadium a vintage, classic look. Opened in 1914, Wrigley Field is the second oldest baseball stadium behind Fenway Park.
This Wrigley Field picture was taken during a really nice day during the summer. I had to rent a small airplane to fly me around the ballpark while I held the window with my right hand and took photos with my right.
It truly is an amazing view above ground. Not only of the ballpark, but of the entire Chicago skyline.
You can find Wrigley Field photos like the one above and many more at my website. Also check out a Chicago Cubs video my son made of all my photographs.

Cold Day in Chicago
With Spring finally here, its a good thing to realize that we wont be seeing any days like these anytime soon.
This may appear as a black and white photo of Chicago, but it was actually taken in color. The conditions that day everything very dark and gray.
This photograph of Chicago's Lakefront shows how violent the waters can get when bad weather hits the city.
The photo was shot right off Fullerton Street and was taken around 20 years ago.
Believe it or not, but it is still a best seller.

Black & White Chicago Skyline Panoramic
As this is my first post, I will talk about one of my favorite and most popular photographs.
This photo above is one of my best sellers and is the current logo on my Chicago Gallery website.
The black and white panoramic of Chicago features the beautiful Chicago Skyline at night. The lights from high a top the skyscrapers casts a nice reflection onto Lake Michigan as the clouds cover the nights sky. The street lights on Lake Shore Drive also provide a shiny glare.
The photo was taken during the late Fall near the Adler Planetarium. It was a great night to be shooting with black and white film as the dark clouds filled the night sky.
This photo really brings out the amazing view of the city skyline.
