Beautiful sebboh. That's the Chicago skyline in the fourth one, isn't it.
correct, the shots are all taken from promontory point, which is a man made peninsula next to the museum of science and industry.
here is the same shot taken between waves:
the point sticks out far enough that it gets lots of waves whenever there are strong winds. when the temperatures are below freezing for nearly a month this leads to everything on the north side getting coated in ice from the spray of the waves. right now it even goes to the top of the lamp posts:
the night before it actually had formed some nice icicles on the light too, but they apparently fell off when the temperature reached 33 F yesterday. 
here's another shot of the other side, which doesn't get as much waves. you can see the museum in the distance:

was that all versions or is there a preference for MC and 55mm or MD 49mm thread for infinity work? i've looked at more of my shots now and it looks like i must have bumped the focus ring in some of my infinite shots - some are quite sharp, while the first ones i looked at were a bit soft.
