Occupy Chicago
Last Saturday I had the wonderful pleasure of attending the first annual ClickinMoms ClickinWalk, and meeting some fellow Chicago area Photographers. The ladies that I met with were amazing and we had such a blast wandering around downtown taking photos. We happened across the daily protest march of the Occupy Chicago group, photos of which are above, and Millennium Park was just full of people preparing for the Marathon the following day and just people downtown having fun in the park.
I have lots more photos from the ClickinWalk, but have yet to get through editing them so I’m sure you’ll see more over the next week or so. I had a great time and am already looking forward to an opportunity to do this sort of thing again!
Also, don’t forget about the Shades of Autumn Photo Challenge! I’ve been overwhelmed at all of the beautiful entries we’ve had so far and there’s still a little time to link up for the colour theme green if you haven’t already. Don’t worry if you missed it, on Thursday Alicia, Kristi, and I will be showcasing some of our favourites and then on Friday the linky for the next colour challenge (yellow) will be open, you’re all invited to take part and link up!

These are so gorgeous. I saw similar photos on another blog and now I can’t remember where. I guess you were there together.
I am definitely going to do that next year.

So neat to see photos like these. As long as I live on my tiny island, I’ll never have a chance to see things like this in action or take photos of them!
Also jealous of bigger places that get to do things together ..very few other bloggers from my town!

You captured beautiful images.

The images sure capture a moment in history that you can share with your kids & grandkids. The black & white is perfect for them.
