As the day turned into dusk and into night the stars over the botanical gardens started shining brightly. And as I was searching for the best angle to capture the frame of the building I realized that by moving the camera just a little bit I could park the dipper right over the roof.

The South Park Conservatory was designed by Lord & Burnham Co. and modeled after the Crystal Palace at Kew Gardens in England. Upon opening in 1900, the conservatory was the third largest public greenhouse in the United States.
