Downtown Chicago, January 2018

March 26, 2018 in photographs

Camera and Lens: Bronica SQ-Ai, Zenzanon PS 80mm f/2.8
Film stock: Ilford HP5+
Exposure: 800
Developer: Ilfotec HC

After three days trying to make this image but not being able to figure out where from, I finally found the perfect place. I headed to North Avenue Beach well before sunrise on my last morning in the city, and took a couple of long exposures.

You can watch how I did it in this video.
