An unknown woman lays down beneath "the bean" for a great reflection shot. I took many many more pics of the bean, because, well, that's what you're supposed to do, isn't it?

It's strange, but this simple sculpture is so darned cool I would almost move to Chicago just for the chance to go and hang out in its presence whenever I wanted to. I look forward to returning on a warmer day (this was about the coldest day of the fall up to that point, I think) when there's no scaffolding on the bottom so I can walk under it and get one of those great crazy pics with the swirling reflections. (Here's another cool one.)
