I knew I was going to go up and shoot Riverside, Illinois from a helicopter in the seconds after I landed from my helicopter ride where I shot the Chicago skyline.  It was just a matter of when.

Blue skies are beautiful and lovely to see.  They just don’t show up in photos very well.  They’re kind of–how should I put this?–boring.  They are textureless sections of the same color spread out over a fairly large chunk of photo real estate.

So how did I know when it was the proper time to go up to shoot Riverside?  Well, the sky looked like this.  I took this photo from the cockpit of the helicopter as we hovered about two feet off the ground.  I look at it now and just nod.  This was the right day to do this shoot.
