Thanks PJ. I've gone back and looked for it again. Using the crop box is the easiest way for me to check verticals. The error is a couple of line widths, less than my eyes can tell. With a big astigmatism since childhood, I'm pretty flexible on straight lines. :-) Regards, Bob S. On Sun, Sep 6,

Thanks Marnie, I tried straightening and stretching this one a bit. I had actually pointed the camera down a bit, to get less sky. As a result, the buildings leaned a bit into the composition. The tall John Hancock Building on the right is also a fooler. It is not square, the sides slope inward. Re

Paul, Dave, Jack, and Bob W., Thanks for commenting. And Jack, even with the depressed RE market, it is expensive, but it's 2 short blocks to school and a 20 minute walk to work. Bob W., she's pretty excited about the whole thing. We are just feeling our way. Regards, Bob S. On Mon, Aug 31, 2009

Nice view, and lovely shot Bob. Very clean photo. Erin and James are going to the church Thursday to set their wedding date, and book the hall. Looks like I'll be in your boat next October, except farther away from Chicago.:-0 Dave On Mon, Aug 31, 2009 at 2:53 PM, Bob Sullivan wrote: > http://ph

Nice view and an excellent composition. I'd love to live in downtown Chicago, but still too many birds in my nest. Paul On Aug 31, 2009, at 2:53 PM, Bob Sullivan wrote: http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=9719320 FA43 limited at f5.6 and 1/800th with ISO 200 on the K-7. Great detail in
