Chicago blue

Chicago, seen through the back of a waterfall fountain — the falling water dissolving the city behind it into streaks of deep teal and silver, the architecture beyond rendered ghostly and impressionistic through the curtain of water. Shot from behind the fall, this image transforms a civic fountain into something between a camera obscura and an abstract painting. Cool, mysterious, and technically audacious — it asks you to look at the city the way water does, without edges, without certainty, as pure flow and reflection. Paired with "Frequency," the two images form a natural diptych about light as line, darkness as ground.
