This photo was taken on June 2012 during my trip to Chicago. That was my first time visiting Chicago. It was a very fun trip. I found a lot of interesting things around and this photo captured one of those, carriage on the street. I think there's not many big city like Chicago still having this kind of traditional carriage on the street regularly, even though for tourists. As a tourist, I would love to see this kind of carriage running on the street because it can bring more thought about the history of the city.

While I was walking on the street and seeing these beautiful carriages, I wondered, how could I capture the beauty of the carriage w-out a lot of nowadays cars and traffic distraction. I wanted to keep the feeling of that age in my photo. However, I wasn't smart enough to figure out. Until, I was taking picture of a shop across the street and a carriage passed by. Without any time for thinking and check my setting, I pan this carriage just for fun. Surprisingly, it came out okay. I feel I did what I wanted to shoot :D
