Good thing too, good practice for when the rest sped through in front of us at breakneck speed!

Chicago’s La Salle Street
Filed in Architecture, Candid, Canon 18-55, Canon 20D, Chicago, People, Photography, Photos, Street, United States, Urban, VehiclesLa Salle Street in Chicago ends abruptly in the Chicago Board of Trade at the far end of the street.
