USA Trump Tower from Adams/Wabash, Chicago

Hey Bernard, at least I felt safe, but it very much depends on the time I would say. Very late in the evening it's a train station that can only be reached by passengers, but there is definitely a chance that you are alone over there, so I would take care during the late hours I guess. Wish you safe travels and a great time in Chicago... would love to come back to this wonderful city as well...

Tks Manuel for your advice. Will take note

Hey Charly, currently we don't have the feature to show EXIF data, but it's planned for the future. My shot was taken at 17mm on a Canon 7D at f13, ISO100 with 17 sec exposure time. Hope that helps.

Thank's for your answer ! And yes, for this kind of website, it will be a nice feature to get exif. Do you have any ETA for this feature ? (weeks/month ?)

Not yet, currently the app for Android and iOS is the highest priority and as soon as this one is live I guess the EXIF feature will be pretty high up on the todo list.

Oh, that might be tricky. I can't remember if the bridge was shaky or not, but you definitely can try. I mean if the bridge itself is shaking, you will have the same issue with any other tripod. The only advice I can give is, that you should do the exposure when the train is coming or has passed already, which is what you might want to have in your shot anyway, but this reduces the shake quite a lot. Good luck and have a great time in one of my favorite cities around the world!

Ok thanks! Any suggestions on spots outside of the popular ones?

In my opinion Chicago is one of the most photogenic cities in the world. I traveled to quite a lot of cities around the world, but Chicago was definitely the one that offered the most beautiful and unique views. Just have a look at the Chicago location and see what might fit to your style of photography.

That's nice to hear, thank you dear Francesco!

Hey Abhay, thank you very much! To be honest I didn't even know that this couldn't be allowed to use a tripod there. But it makes sense, so I would suggest you to use it and be fast. Or be there during the summer when the blue hour is pretty late and there are less people around, which should make it even easier to use a tripod. I had used it at Ashland and here and didn't have any problems, but that could just have been luck I guess. Dodge & Burn is a technique and not a special feature of any application. You can also do it in Adobe Lightroom, but it's much easier and better in my opinion in pixeloriented apps like Photoshop. It's just important to understand that you can direct the eyes of the viewer by making somehing lighter or darkening things that shouldn't get so much intention. In this way you can also create more dimension like I did with the Trump Tower in the background where I lightened up the front that already got more light and darkened the right part, that was already a little bit darker. You can often change the lighting situation entirely, but I am just emphasizing the light/the shadows that were already there to get more depth. Hope that helps you. Otherwise feel free to ask again! Wish you good luck with your shot and we will add a feature very soon where you can easily add your photo to this existing spot if you want to.
