On this evening walk through downtown Chicago, the light fell just right. The sun was slowly sinking behind the horizon, letting its last rays fall between the tall buildings. It gave the street a warm glow, while the city around me came alive with the sound of traffic, pedestrians and the rattle of the underground above my head.
I took my time to carefully determine my composition. The elevated rail line of the Chicago Loop forms a powerful element in the image: a horizontal line contrasting the vertical architecture of the city. The depth of the street, the lines of the buildings and the soft light made this a special moment. After a series of shots, I knew the right image was among them.
As always, I elaborate on my photos after returning home. At my desk, with professional equipment and editing software, I edit each shot with attention to detail. For this image, I chose a warm colour finish to make the most of the sunlight, shadows and atmosphere of the city.
The result is a powerful cityscape that captures the energy of Chicago in a moment of light and texture. An ode to the rhythm of the city, caught between steel, stone and sunlight.
