Southport

In my quest to find interesting details at home and around town this winter, I discovered how focusing on the little things can uniquely tell a much larger story. Take one of my favorite streets in Chicago. I've always loved hanging out on Southport, but concentrating on its details - the sophisticated boutiques and independent restaurants and cafes, the trendy hustle and bustle of its patrons - made me rediscovered why I loved it.

And a little Midwestern hospitality!

I've had a lot of fun playing around with depth of field and motion this winter. The ice and snow and, well, lack of life outside forced me to get creative and look for the beauty in details.
