Christmas in Chicago: A Dazzling Timelapse

‘Tis the Season

T’was the night before Christmas, and in the great city of Chicago, the amazing photographers at The Outbound Life were too excited to sleep.

Their masterfully crafted timelapse video, Christmas in Chicago, truly sums up exactly why there’s no place like home for the holidays. From up on the rooftop to the base of Millennium Park’s great Christmas Tree, the short clip perfectly encompasses the holiday mirth, joy, and happiness that accompanies the holiday season.

With spectacular views of Water Tower Place, ice skating, and enough smiles on the faces of happy children to make Ebeneezer Scrooge give up the “Bah Humbugs,” we’ve gotta say, we’re impressed.

The video rounds itself out with a bustling Christkindlmarket, fireworks along the Chicago Riverwalk, and the iconic outside of Macy’s on State.

In short, the “Adventure Filmmakers” from The Outbound Life are insanely talented, and they don’t just post pictures and videos from Chicago, either. The photographers focus on the art of storytelling in their works, and it shows. Christmas in Chicago isn’t some hastily or sloppily slapped together timelapse. Everything within it seems to intertwine and come together perfectly, leaving you with the joy and wonder of a child on Christmas.
