One of the things I enjoy most about being a Chicagoan is that the photographic "magic hour" isn't an end, but a transition. As the sun sinks away, taking with it the best series of moments to capture warm depth in images, it ushers in a different brand of luminous--the one marked by neon lights and the buzz of nightlife. I took this moments before the deadline for Photo Friday, and it isn't photoshopped one iota.
