One of the most beautiful cities in the world and the third populous city
in the United States, Chicago has its pride in being an alpha global city
and a vital node in the global economic system. And, the diversified
cultures and population make Chicago a unique stand among the
global cities. It is one of the most popular cities that many
photographers want to visit. Although Chicago skyline has been taken
by many photographers but this classical shot of Chicago skyline at
night has unique perspective for its own. Purple color has been used
to imply royalty, prosperity, nobility, luxury and ambition. I took this
classical shot of Chicago skyline at night and purposely use purple
white balance to show these characteristics of city.
