Nostalgia.

[Holykatzbob]

Hell yeah my town!

[captainfury2007]

This was really good. You're awesome.

I am so so so so sorry that I couldn't meet you out there.

[Frikkomo79]

ahh..the wave, your shadow at the end...a modern place pressed into nature..theway you work with your camera. and the camera panning at 0:57... again i have to say ...great work!

[Frikkomo79]

I'm not sure why, but i know it's not just the melody that makes me feel scrared. This is art. I can't get away from it. Well done !!!

[ralfonzo83]

thanks a lot. this was a very quick made video...i´m glad it became pretty good.

[gembay]

Wow this looks like a nice place to chill.

The ducks seem to like it as well.

[ralfonzo83]

it´s a great place!

the ducks didn´t like me.

[Ibikyo1]

coooooooooool^^

[paisleyente]

i like the quote (?) at the end. honestly, i didn't know you liked it so much here. it was hard to get that feeling while you were here. take care.

[ralfonzo83]

i don´t lie when i say that it was the best thing i ever did. btw, i just fixed my guitar.

[paisleyente]

i don't think you were lying, but...na. nevermind.

glad the guitar is ok.

Very cool Ralf. I will put you in touch with the Chicago department of tourism. The music gives it a lonely feeling. The essence of nostalgia is a longing for what never was or what cannot be regained.

[muserine]

Why do my comments never ever get posted?? :(

I wann see the Bean, too! ^__^

[ralfonzo83]

Get "Bean" the movie on DVD!! But it´s pretty bad. ´:)

[kalifstorch25]

Chicago?

[ralfonzo83]

jupp

[irgendsonraptyp]

sieht schon aus - wo liegt nostalgia?

[ralfonzo83]

in meinem herzen *schmach*

[speedyconkiwi]

i liked the zooming on the bean :)

[MicheleMidnight]

cool. i liked the black and white open and transition...and something about that wave near the end was just sweet.

[blackcat2enterprises]

*sigh* yep nostalgia. Seeing the ocean and the geese made me miss Cape Cod in the summer. *sigh*

Lovely video.

[ralfonzo83]

actually it´s not an ocean, it´s lake michigan. but it really seems endless.

[ralfonzo83]

you got it.

[SomebodyIusedtoknow]

im in chicago ♥ come see me!

[ralfonzo83]

sure! let´s meet.

[OhCurt]

.....

[ralfonzo83]

what? :(

[OhCurt]

lol, I was just trying to let you know I was speechless - but in a good way, I promise.

:-)

[ralfonzo83]

i don´t want you to be speechless. i want you to share your inner thoughts with me!

[OhCurt]

Right now my inner thought is I'm hungry for chocolate.

How about you?

[ralfonzo83]

i´m hungry for traveling. seeing new things, new people.

[OhCurt]

That's definitely less fattening and more enlightening than eating chocolate.

:-)

[sarahwatts08]

You're welcome to come visit California! We have lots to see here! :D

[zebidee55]

Beautiful.

[ralfonzo83]

thanks. i wished i had filmed more.

[andymooseman]

Nice video Ralf.

I loved my time in Chicago too. I'd love to go back someday :)

[ralfonzo83]

Take me with you! We could make a road trip! lol

[andymooseman]

Sounds good to me Ralf :)

[Sugartalker]

Cool Ralf! I love the shot with the camera in the mirror thingy. Did I see Samuel in this?

I am nostalgic about my last trip to Germany. I shot a ton of video and watch it every so often. We will meet the next time I go Ralf. Count on it!

[zebidee55]

You sooo need to come over. I've been pitching hard to Gary about how cheap airfares are at the moment. I found ones for him in the US$500-600 range.

[ralfonzo83]

i´ve already planned what we will do here.

[JoeDurobot]

I was in Chicago at the time you were there, I miss it too especialy because my girlfriend lives there. :'(

[kaitfaery]

If it makes you feel any better, I'll trade my place in L.A. with yours in Berlin. =) L.A. isn't Chicago but, still cool! I know what you mean though - I miss Germany every single day. This is a really nice video you put together. Chicago really looks beautiful. It's not going anywhere though - you'll get the chances to go back. And there's so much more of the U.S. worth seeing too!

[ralfonzo83]

I´m sure of this! California is my next destination.

[anakin1814]

It bothers me so much that we missed each other on your journey.

[zebidee55]

Sometimes the significance of the relationships is only evident _after_ a near miss like that. Am I right that you guys are a lot tighter now than you were at the time? I felt this with the Munich Gathering where 90% of the relationships were built after the event & you don't realise the significance at the time. Now there is nothing that could stop you meeting up at that close a distance. I'm struggling with balancing YTers, work & GF while I'm here in Germany.

[ralfonzo83]

yes

[nearinginfinity]

nice video, enjoyed watching. thanks.

[richfranz84]

Wo ist das?  NYC?? Miami? Nostalgia very nice. :)

[JoeDurobot]

Chicago

[richfranz84]

I guess that black spot is the Sears Tower (or whatever it is called now) isn't it !! I should have known that...^-^

[JoeDurobot]

Yes the black tower with the two white antennas.

[ralfonzo83]

i think you´re right. i was in it actually. unfortunately not in that video :)

[richfranz84]

When I first commented on this I didn't recognize the skyline. I have been to Chicago 3 times in my life and fell in love with the place too. The Sears Tower has been bought by some other corporation and it has been renamed. But I will always remember it as the "Sears Tower." LakeShore Drive (and lake Michigan) is an awesome place isn't it!

[Ki12B]

tolles video

[richfranz84]

erster!!
