Night Light

February 5, 2005: There's nothing quite like the lights of a major city at night, and when you can see those lights from a high vantage point, you can truly get a feel for the scale of the city itself. This picture was taken from the Hancock Observatory, which is near the top floor of the John Hancock tower. Looking more or less southwest, the Sears Tower is evident, as are the suburbs of Chicago stretching into the distance.
