This wasn't there when I lived in Chicago for a year back in 1969, Steven, so I'm so sorry to have missed it in real life. Your image is one of the best I've seen of it, especially showing its scale with all the people around. BRAVO.

Superb composition of this fascinating sculpture and how it captures the skyline. Your processing taking the colour out of the bean is inspired. Great work Steven. 5*

Now, facing the Bean, we can even make an adaptation of the game "Where's Waldo?", to "Where's Steven?".
:-D

The cut-out effect was very well applied to the photo.

afternoon in the park with a few personal friends? Turning chrome to black and white is often a good tactic, and here it results in the whole city!
