great contrast between photos 1 and 2-5. Not many cities (if any) offer quite the same balance of environments.
Though photos two and five actually make me a little uncomfortable in that the people's heads butt up right against the horizon line. It's like the sky is sitting right on top of their heads.
I think the demonstration of contrasts would have been best served to simply show photos 1 and 2 right next to each other and have the horizons lines match up at the same spot. (I realize the template design of the blog makes this horizontal arrangement not exactly possible without shrinking down the photos.)
Adding photos 3-5 serves only an informational purpose of "hey look at the specific things you can in Chicago". It muddles the strong relationship between the first two photos.
