Tree Tuesday - Christmas in Chicago

(Edited)

Chicago is starting to gear up for Christmas, here's a few of the trees I found for #treetuesday by @old-guy-photos

Here's a fancy lobby tree setup in the Wrigley building. Most of the major buildings have trees setup in their lobbies. I could probably create a whole post on the different styles setup in each building. Pardon the blur in this picture I had to rush to the train.

Here's the tree nestled between the Wrigley building. They continued the blue ribbon theming outside as well.

This is a massive tree setup across the street from the Wrigley building right next to the Chicago Tribune building. I'll have to try and get a night shot of this one.

Right next to the large tree is the Jack Daniel's barrel tree, the barriers ensure no one sneaks a free swill.

It may look like its the middle of the night in this shot but its only 5pm and the lights on these trees are shining bright.

The Wrigley building tree is nice bright spot in between the building.

This ornament could almost qualify for a #monomad post.

Here's a bit of silver and gold in the landscaping.

Finally a bit of red and green from the Sears tower aka Willis tower. Most of the buildings are themed in red and green now.

More scraggly lit trees blending into the buildings behind them.

Now I just have to wait a few months until spring brings all the trees back to life.

In the meantime brace yourselves for winter :-[ happy #treetuesday
