1 and 3 are the winners for me.
Great sky in #3 with a hint of the orange city glow against a blue drop.
Being an ex-chicagoan the Prudential sign kills it
Great shots, but for me it's more one and 2. In one, I would try to clone yourself out of the reflection in the bean (unless that was deliberate). Otherwise, I like em!

Thanks! I was lucky to be there on a cold day with very few tourists. There was only one other photog so we pretty much have the whole place to ourselves.
Matt, the first one 's title is "Me in the Bean" And great shot in your avatar!
I still keep coming back to this & like it more each time I see it. I'll have to get back down there at a different time of day & re-shoot mine. I did this in the morning, & turned it into my avatar...
Thank you all for looking! I appreciate the comments. Chicago is a really nice city. I live in Toronto and wish we make our waterfront as nice as Chicago. We have a lot to learn from Chicago from a city planning perspective.
Wow! Fantastic images! I don't think you should clone yourself out of the first one. You'd have to do your shadow as well, and with all the converging lines and changing shades, it would be difficult and time consuming to do it seamlessly and without leaving a flat spot on the curved surface. More trouble than it would be worth, imho. You might think about cloning out the extra pair of legs sticking out from beneath the doughnut (near the middle), however, and the blur in the second shot, both of which I'm assuming are the other photographer you mentioned (?).
