Wednesday Walk - Late Winter in Chicago
Here's a late wintry experience from Chicago for this #wednesdaywalk by @tattoodjay
Late Tuesday we got the warning about another snowstorm coming in. It hit around the time I commute back home. I took the water taxi rather than walk all the way to the train station.
Here's a shot leaving the water taxi pickup looking back at the Wrigley building. Water on the river is a bit choppy from the wind.
Given the choppy water the taxi was a bit late. So I made my way to the front of the boat to kill some time. Here's a shot where you can see the El train passing on a bridge overhead.
Finally made it home. In suburbia the snow was just starting to hit.
The next morning we got around two or three inches.
It got pretty cold too, icicles are hanging off everything this morning.
They contrast well against this green awning.
Trees are nicely dusted too.
Time to hop the beast and go back downtown.
The ride in was a white and greenish blur through the train window tinting.
Downtown only had a light dusting.
Me trying to raise steem awareness #slush err I mean #posh or something...
Here's a shot from yesterday.
Now from today, pretty much the same just a bit of snow dusting. We'll see if things get coated more by end of day. Nice gloomy day for ash wednesday, looks like its falling from the sky. Happy #wednesdaywalk

Thanks :-)
Some great shots on your walks,i love the icicles especially
Thanks for joining Wednesday Walk :)
Fortunately this walk wasn't too slippery this time. One year all of downtown was coated in icicles, gotta dig up those old photos sometime.
I do remember a few years back I was so focused on getting some shots of icicles I slipped and fell over lOL
Yeah i biffed it once in front of a bunch of people. Humbling experience lol. Such is the life of a photographer.
Ohh yeah humbling indeed, what we do to ge the photo we want lOL
Great photograph.
Thanks :-), the city always offers an interesting photograph. Especially with gloomy weather.
Osam
Excellent walk photos! ❤️
Thanks, how bad is it up in Wisconsin?
We got nothing. At one point they were predicting 12in for here, and then they changed it to 6, and then to flurries. Looks like it all went South of us.
Thankfully we didn't get a foot of snow here lol.

Nice late Winter in Chicago photography.
Nice and cold.
Amazing
The city has some amazing views for sure.
Chicago looks beautiful even in a winter day! At least the downtown areas ;0)
The winter makes the building look more moody than standard shiny sunny building photos.
Such big city with tall skyscrapers! Snow at the end of February! The icicles looked nice!
Hopefully its the last of the snow... but sometimes it can hit even in april.
