Windy City, Smoky Mountains ~ Day 2 - Field Museum, Shedd Aquarium & John Hancock Obs

Looks like a really interesting day, getting some ideas here!! RE night shots: My bf tells me that a tripod is the key, or something else to keep the camera absolutely still. It is really hard to get good ones though, mine never turn out well.

Yeah, I had an idea that was the problem because I could hear the shutter was staying open longer than normal and my hands aren't rock steady at the best of times.

Great report David, looking forward to the rest.
Sue is of course also a Disney Reference as the bones were being cleaned up at Animal Kingdom when it first opened.
