Aerial of Wrigley Field with Chicago Skyline



This is one of my favorite Aerial Photos of Chicago. Being a fan of both the Cubs and city of Chicago, there is nothing better than to showcase both in one photograph.

The photo was taken about 5 years ago during a Cubs night game. Wrigley Field really stands out from high above the Northside area along with Clark Street set on a diagonal into the heart of the loop area. Chicago truly has one of the best skylines in the world.

In order to take this shot I had to rent out a small airplane and get a pilot to fly. As he made passes by Wrigley Field I would have to hold the window up yet at the same time hold my camera steady and focus on what I was trying to capture.

The city looks a lot different from high above. It is a sight that many Chicagoans will never be able to experience and I am fortunate to say that I have done it multiple times.

After seeing the amazing view from far above Wrigley Field, fly high with online betting and make extra cash before landing.

Cubs First Night Game 8-8-88



Since this is the first post on my Wrigley Field blog, what better way to start things than a photograph taken during the Cubs first name game at Wrigley Field.

This is a classic Wrigley Field photo taken before the start of the Chicago Cubs first night game which took place on 8/8/88. There was much controversy prior to this day whether or not the Chicago Cubs should install lights inside the stadium.

The photo was actually taken from the rooftop of the Cubby Bear Bar & Restaurant. The photo features the Cubs Marquee with the words, "WELCOME TO OPENING NIGHT".

Unfortunately I never got to see any of the game, but I will never forget that night after taking this photo.
