O’Hare International Airport is one of the busiest airports in the world, and one of the largest. So I am always grateful when I can take the moving walkway through the terminal from one plane’s arrival gate to the connecting plane’s departure gate.
And these walkways were long enough, I was able to take more than a few photographs. They came out in a funky kind of way — appropriate, I think, for the beginning of a journey.
I like this one! Very colorful!
Not a fan of airports, but O’Hare has made it easier to wait. A few decades ago a wait here was utter misery – now there are art shows, entertainment, not bad at all! I swear I could ride this people mover and look at the lights for an hour.
I agree with Montucky – colorful and cool.
Cool shot, Bo. It has a futuristic quality to it.
Yeah, O’Hare Airport is rather a futuristic kind of holding place on a journey.
I haven’t flown all that much, but I find the airports so surreal when I do. Almost like being in another world.
Surreal is the perfect description!
Ooooo I really DO love this one. The lines fascinate me as do the color “gradations.”
The lines really fascinated me, too. So much so that, with my camera pointed upwards, I forgot the rules about standing still on the right of the people mover, walking on the left, and got in a couple of hurried travelers way. Ooops!
My daughter quickly gave me instructions in proper airport etiquette. And that is a good thing to know!
Haha, very cool. Looks a little “sci-fi” if you will forgive the term. I like this one a lot. Something different too.
