Chicago is a wonderful city in that there is so much to see and explore. After viewing pictures of the city from websites such as Revealing Chicago and Picturing Chicago, I was reminded of why I love my city so much. Both websites provide excellent detail oriented photographs that would give tourists a first hand look at our best landscapes and features. When I compare the two websites, I get different emotions and thoughts about Chicago’s environment. Even though both sights showed the highlights of Chicago and what it has to offer, I prefer the website Revealing Chicago because the pictures are much more colorful and vibrant. With the first website, a lot of thoughts come to mind about beautiful landscapes, nightlife, and architecture. I do not get this same feeling when I look at the second website because the pictures are very dull and they only remind me of the low-income side of Chicago.
If I was able to buy a high mega-pixel camera and tour Chicago my pictures would be very different from the two websites Revealing Chicago and Picturing Chicago. Unlike these two websites, I would want to photograph people and events that are going to give a more realistic view of what currently goes on in Chicago. For instance, an example of a great picture would be a snap shot of people shopping on Michigan Ave. because it shows the busyness and diversity of the city. Not only would viewers get a sneak peak at Chicago’s diverse population, but they would also get to view the buildings and the scenery in the background of the photo.
