Chicago in mirror image






We were in the beautiful Millenium park, Chicago, on 12th November 2011. In the picture what you see is a huge polished metal object made to look like a bean.. The commercial tall  buildings located around the place may be seen in the reflection.
The above picture is the Chicago's Bean Sculpture.  The name of the artist is Anish Kapoor.  It was constructed between 2004-2006.  The nick name is ' The Bean'.    It is made of 168 stainless steel plates.- 33 ft x 66ft x 42 ft.- exterior is highly polished.
