CPD Permits March

On Saturday, April 20, 2024, pro-Palestinian demonstrators rallied and then staged a march on Michigan Avenue, followed by a symbolic sit-in at the intersection of Wacker Drive and Michigan Avenue. Unlike this past Monday, the Chicago Police Department permitted the march to proceed. For my thoughts about the demonstration and my images, click on the image below.

It was an unusually cold day today, with the driving winds whipping the willow tree branches about and chilling the air and my hands.  Not a good day for outdoor macro photography.  Nor did I find it a particularly good day for photographs providing overviews of the Japanese or English gardens.  The light was just too cold and harsh.
