Beautiful Chicago river leading into the Trump tower with the lighted buildings on the side.

Photography Tips

Due to traffic the bridge shakes, so you need a steady tripod and lower shutter speed. I also took this photo 1.5 ft from the ground between the railings.

I would like to credit Enis Mullaj for taking the original shot. I just tried to replicate it.

Thank you for the credits! The shot looks pretty clear and sharp, but you shot too late in the night, that causes a black boring sky. Espacially I would change the white balance, what caused the heavy yellow light cast. Keep shooting!

Yep, very good points by Enis. By the way Abhay: It would be nice if you could just add your photos to the existing spots. They will be suggested if you try to create them at a spot where one is already there. If the view and point you stood is the same as the one that already exists it's much better if we have just 1 spot for that so that we all can aggregate all tips and tricks for this one spot at once. Otherwise another photographer would have to read everything you wrote in your spot description and in the one of Enis and so on. By the way: Replicating the spots you saw here is not only a huge honor for the photographers, but also for Locationscout! So thank you very much! :)
