One of the most beautiful and happiest memories of city travel with family and friends for me is Chicago. It was our Nursing reunion of more than 10 years after graduation. Today, I get to relive them again and that’s really amazing. I nominated you for Captur the Colour . Hope you like it.

Thank you IT! I’m very humbled by this honor you’ve bestowed upon me. I’ll come to your blog to check out Capture the Color. Thank you again, my friend!
And I’m getting prepared to do Passion from last week…..I had forgotten what the theme was…so I looked it up on your blog! 😉
What a lovely picture! Would love to travel through USA one day, and see all the cities I’ve heard so much of. 🙂
Chicago is a favorite of mine! It’s a beautiful city, situated along Lake Michigan. And…..it’s only 3.5 hours from me! 😉 I hope you have that chance someday!

Chicago has some beautiful buildings! I like your choice too- it shows a many architectural styles…
Thanks, Meg! I love architectural styles. I shot a lot of those buildings through the car roof on that trip in June! I always intended to make a post of it! Haven’t done it yet! ahhhh…time. That’s all I need! 😉

I’ve never been to Chicago but your photos make it real. Also, I’m a sucker for the colour blue and I see it here and love it.
Me too….love blue! Then you’ll like my next post. I was part of a challenge and had to find color photos. My blue one is of a favorite lake of mine in Alberta,Canada. Aren’t you from Canada?
Nice shot Judy. Is it really the “windy” city as mentioned in the musical “Calamity Jane”
Yes…it’s windy there much of the time! Not fun when it’s windy in the middle of winter! Thank you, Jim!
Hi Judy have you ever got the chance to visit Indian subcontinent as there are many “blue”options over here too. I have recently visit a blue city named “Jodhpur”. Your post was really very good I have recently seen the photograph’s of one of my friends visit to Chicago and the place looks quite amazing.
Hi Clarissa..no I haven’t had the chance to go there. They sound perfectly lovely! I would really enjoy visiting them.
Thank you for your tip and your compliment! Both are appreciated! I do love Chicago..and it’s only 3.5 hours away from me! 😉
That’s “Urban” … nice choice for the challenge.
Well done ….!!!
Yes, nothing very creative there! ..ex. I do like the architectural mix. But it was the first thing that came to mind, and I was already days behind! 😉 Thanks!
Beautiful photo Judy 🙂 I would love to go to Chicago, it’s on my list of places I want to visit. I love big cities !
It is a very classy city, Jocelyne! I’m sure you’ll love it! Thanks!
