With temperatures reaching 87° today, how about we go into the archives and pull out a nice photo of city slush-a-roo?

Here we have a cast of characters huddling together in the urban coldness.
From right to left (that's right we are going the opposite direction, so pay attention)
* The mighty Unitrin building says, "Man, I'm cold!"
* Jewelers Building hides behind a tree, "This tree might just might make me warm."
* Hotel 71 tries to hide by standing flat back behind that building with the tall-peaky-thing-who's-name-I-don't-know.
* London Insurance Building stands bold and strong, as does the Hard Rock Hotel dressed in a slick winter black coat with gold trim.

* Across the street is that other building who's name I don't know. Get a name why don't you!?
* Then the Illinois Center is also dressed in a nice black Chicago jacket. A jacket that's bulky and puffy, like one of them puffy jackets.
* And finally, the AON Center, the tallest kid of the group and the most silly, tries to get a sun tan by facing towards the bit of sun that is able to peak through the clouds.

And that yellow taxi van is like, "i'm totally outta here! Eat my slush, you fudge nuckers!"

It's a technique called HDR (high dynamic range). I photograph a scene multiple times each with a different exposure, and then I merge them together and get the best of the brights, darks, and midtones. There's a fantastic tutorial at: [link]
