The top picture shows the sculpture ("Cloud Gate") at Millenium Park in Chicago. The second picture is the picture I took, looking up at the sculpture as I was about to step underneath it. I circled myself and also used red arrows to show the various reflections of me - there are more, but they get harder and harder to see! Very cool sculpture!
Here is the description of it: "Cloud Gate is British artist Anish Kapoor's first public outdoor work installed in the U.S. THe 110-ton eliptical sculpture is forged of a seamless series of highly polished stainless steel plates, which reflect the city's famous skyline and the clouds above. A 12-foot high arch provides a "gate" to the concave chamber beneath the sculpture, inviting visitors to touch its mirror-like surface and see their image reflected back from a variety of perspectives."

That is really neat.
That is the neatest sculpture. I love the pictures with the skyline in the back ground. Chicago has done some wonderful things to their downtown!
It will always be known as "The Bean"
How come you were the only one jumping rope? What a guy, always exercising! This is way cool!
