Chicago Photography: Tile Store
I recently visited a specialty tile store here in Chicago. They had some really cool installations and amazing patterns and colors. I wish I had taken more, but I don’t think all the sales people appreciated a loud “CLICK” while trying to outfit a multimillion dollar bathroom…
Most of these were taken at 100 ISO, 18mm, and f/3.5-4.5. There was a lot of natural light coming through into the show room, but there were a bunch of lamps wit all sorts of different color light coming in, so on the camera I used auto white balance. Once I got them into Lightroom I realized how off some of the colors were, so I adjusted as needed (particularly the one with the stool). I also realized that no matter how still you stand and line up, straight lines on a wall are hard to keep straight.
Thanks for looking! Leave comments below! RB

Check out the lightning from tonight! Click on each picture for a full sized one!
I took these tonight with the big storm that produced hail in downtown Chicago. I thought that our windows might crack! These pictures were taken with a D3100 at 3.0 seconds on a small tripod. I was on manual focus just under infinity to capture the distance. I took over 60 shots to grab these two. What do you think?
