The concept of the website Revealing Chicago is very different with all of the pictures being taken from a birds eye view. I also like how all of the pictures include the caption of what the picture is, which allows the viewer to be more familiar of where the photo is taken at. The idea of the significant pictures having a longer caption is also nice, because then the viewer knows the history of the picture. http://www.revealingchicago.org/
Picturing Chicago is a cool website because you are able to see the many areas of the city, and they are easily labeled for an easier viewing experience. The concept of arranging the pictures into categories is very nice. Chicago Image base is a great source to use if you are doing an in depth project of the city. Not only are you able to see images but you have additional information that goes along with it. http://www.picturingchicago.com/
I really enjoyed all three of these sites and the photos that were presented on each separate website. When I take photos of the city, it is mainly of the buildings, landmarks, and other structures that stick out or are displayed in the city temporarily. The landmarks are so diverse in the city and always changing with time, that its nice to have that remembrance of how it looked once or how over time the city and its buildings can change. http://tigger.uic.edu/depts/ahaa/imagebase/index.html.
