Lake Point Tower

Lake Point Tower

I went out this afternoon looking for a pair of shoes.  I decided to travel light, so I took my Leica M with the 12mm Voightlander wide angle lenses mounted, with a 28mm and a 90mm lenses in a small bag.  12mm equals insanity.  You either have to be extremely close or the object needs to be very large--although I did find an exception to that rule.  By day's end, I had some nice photographs, but no shoes.

Along the way, I did stop into the Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art, where they have an interesting exhibit entitled Eternal Youth.  About 90% of the exhibit is photography by the likes of Dowoud Bey, Larry Clark, Nan Golden, Bruce Nauman, Herb Ritts, Wolfgang Timmons, and Francesca Woodman, among others.
