A complete U Boat under the museum’s front lawn! I wish we could have had a longer and less superficial tour.

Chicago – The Loop

Chicago – The Loop by Gary Allman
Processing this picture I discovered an old fashioned British telephone booth in the street. I have no idea how it got here or why it is here.

A special exhibition

A special exhibition by Gary Allman

The Art Institute of Chicago

We had just left the Hopper exhibition and were taking a quick rest when Ginger said it was one of the best days. When better to pop the question? Just as well I was carrying the ring around with me waiting for the right moment. Not exactly the most romantic of locations, but one we will certainly remember.

Okay I admit it, this isn’t a special picture in the photographic sense, but it isn’t every day you get engaged.

A special event requires a special place, and I proposed just after we had finished seeing the Edward Hopper exhibition at The Art Institute of Chicago.
