Cloud Gate “The Bean” series – 4

I’m sure you are getting tired of Cloud Gate shots. This is my last in the series and also my favorite. This was taken with my Leica M9-P and 21mm super elmar. What I like about it is the amount of detail in the buildings (click on picture to see full-size). The 21mm super elmar was built for sharpness from corner to corner and this image is a perfect example of it.

Cloud Gate (aka “The Bean”) series

I didn’t just take pics of the “The Bean” with my Olympus OM-D, I also shot with my Leica M9-P and 21mm super elmar.

This shot is not a HDR and was shot handheld.  The shot is slightly cropped so that I could remove my self from the picture.  I was attempting to get the original sky and the reflected sky to blend.
