Smoke Tower

Hot! In Human Impact

Smoke Tower

Nikon D40 with 18-55mm Nikkor lens.

Taken downtown Chicago from the top of the Sears Tower.

The tower is a power station, or so I've been told. I don't know the name of it, my apologies.

Clearly, it is contributing to our pollution problem.

I just thought it was so beautiful with the rays of light shining down onto it and the city.
