Description Overlooking the city of Chicago from the Sears Tower. The tallest building you see in the distance is the John Hancock building, at one point, the tallest in the world.

Awesome photo, looks like you got an absolute beaut of a day to visit as well!

Something about the perspective makes it seem as though the viewer is spying the city from another planet, with a massively awesome telescope. That's the first thought that hit me, anyway!

I totally missed this view on my trip to the Sears Tower, considering I was curled up on the floor having a panic attack. D: Thank you so much for posting this, now I know what the city looks like from above. xD

Beautiful view! I just got back earlier this day from a vacation to Chicago(I visit every summer since my dad grew up there)
I love Chicago... The sears tower, lake michigan, the hancock building, millennium park, the science and industry museum, wrigley field.... It is my favorite city of all time !

The two times I went through Chicago, it was pitch black outside (3am..that's what happens). I wish I would have had the opportunity to see it like this.

The tilted angle gives this a great edge.

No seriously, I really like those types of angle for photography. I really like the colours and how peaceful it looks, even though it's a big city.

Amazing shot; I randomly looked for pretty picture's, and guess what;
I found one!

P.s: The blue colors and the whole sphere looks like a scene out of
the movie The Day After Tommorow!

And owh; +fav
