This week's photos were taken at the end of Hollywood Pier on a lovely Sunday afternoon in July.  This pier technically doesn't have a name (as far as I know), but I call it Hollywood Pier because the beach it sits on (Kathy Osterman Beach) is known colloquially as Hollywood Beach.  This is the internet and things must have names, damn it!

Clouds and Wires and Poles and Things

This week we had some interesting clouds as Chicago endures a moderate heat wave, and there are few things that make me happier than summer cloud formations.  I took these while walking home from work one night.  I had a bunch of other photos I wanted to work on this week, but I couldn't quite wrap my brain around them-- sometimes that happens.  Sometimes in the summer you just want to stare at the sky.
