Around the World : Capone’s Chicago

(Second slideshow of Chicago Series)

As a kid, Chicago only meant one thing : the city of Al Capone and his gangsters. Probably influenced by the many Hollywood movies showcasing Al Capone and the Prohibition years. Luckily, Chicago is now a modern and pretty safe city even though when one goes out at night, he might suddenly feel like he were back in the atmosphere of the 20′s. This slideshow is the result of my errances in the dark side streets and misty nights of Chicago, looking for Al.  Click here or on picture to launch slideshow.

    Thanks!
    Willy Ronis, one of the greats. Probably the most « Humanist » of all. I own a book where his pictures are explained with a detailed text. Very interesting and much to learn from him, not only about pictures but also the way he saw society and life.
