The Cloud Gate - "The Bean"

I have been waiting for a while now to shoot "the bean", which is located at Chicago's Millennium Park. After purchasing a tripod, that was one of the first trips I was making. I took the Metra downtown and arrived in Chicago just before 7am (the best time to take pictures outside on a sunny day is dawn or dusk). The temperature outside was chilly and the sky was filled with clouds all morning and early afternoon. This worked in my favor.
