Michigan Avenue, Chicago, originally uploaded by barst.

I started this blog a couple of years ago, but never got around to posting much on it. Now that I am out photographing on the street again, I am going to start anew. I'm going to try to post a photo a day.

This one was taken on North Michigan Avenue in Chicago the "Magnificent Mile" as it is called. These days, it is lined with mostly outposts of international chains from Chanel to the Gap and everything in between. Marshall Field's is no more--now it's Macy's. Lord & Taylor is gone, but the stores and the people keep coming.
