Frosty Chicago via the Art Institute

On a recent visit to the Chicago Art Institute I found these awesome frosted doors as I exited the Modern Wing.  There was some sort of condensation problem happening in the entryway.  The Art Institute had a fan set up to try and push air out of the room, but it clearly wasn't working.  No complaints from me.

My photo taking captured the attention of several others, who stopped to take their own shots.  One guy said this to me:

Guy standing near me as I take a picture: "That's a great Instagram photo." Me: "It's just a great photo." We agree.

Of course, I did eventually put them on Instagram, so I guess we were both right!
