SILENT CITY

[@ghotifish9225]

Thank you for artistically documenting this moment in time.

[@roninmediaoutlet]

The day that time stopped. This is an incredible creation. Thank you for documenting this.

I can’t imagine Chicago without it’s rare people filling the streets. I promise I’ll never complain about rush hour again☹️

[@xuesiyang9526]

protect yourself

[@californiamade5608]

Same with San Francisco. Rush hour is even worse there. I really miss it to some weird extent.

[@jaysimon5442]

You know what I love about this? It shows a city doing the right damn thing by its citizens. You can view this as depressing, though I don't think that's the intent. It's a city doing what it needs to do together to keep our communities safe. Do your part and flatten that curve!

[@californiamade5608]

[@dronemedia8309]

This inspired me to create something like this but on my campus at Illinois State. I’m not as good as you but it’s my first work. Thank you for the inspiration 😔

[@dg-zl1ct]

I really love this video, showing Chicago do the right thing, as many other states and cities are reported that they aren't listening to the stay at home orders. I am proud of my fellow Chicagoan's that are taking the warning seriously as we care about each other enough to listen and stay home to save each other. Well done Chicago. God bless everyone.

[@californiamade5608]

dg 4787 lol. What are you talking about? San Francisco was the first city in America to place a shelter in place order almost 2 weeks ago now. The rest of the nation followed.

[@KommentarSpaltenKrieger]

This is the first footage where it doesn't look like an average (early) Sunday morning. These montages indicate a good thing (people are staying at home) and at the same time, it is quite impressive.

[@DMK195601]

Beautiful work. Thank you ❤️

[@maxvillanueva3629]

This is crazy. Thanks for capturing this- I hope this is the rare and only time this ever happens in our lifetimes.

[@miloszlatanovic3289]

Chicago! A mega city and somehow forever - my city! Colorful, huge, powerful and cold! Most beautiful when it rains and thunders, because then it is a real Gotham City! Chicago is never, never this empty! Seeing Chicago like this is icing my blood, because I see and I know that this quiet is at the same time a THUNDEROUS message of Nature, God, The Universe! A message that stopped the one who thought of being unstoppable! A message that tells us to STOP! To stop with our greed and greedy systems that turn people into slaves, with going over dead bodies to climb to the highest possible level of the materialistic pyramid, with the insane pollution of Nature, because only one thing has become our goal - PROFIT! We thought we were stronger than anything, even Nature, God, The Universe! We forgot about Mother Nature, and then she showed us her power with this quiet, but at the same time - THUNDEROUS message! #Covid19 is a huge tragedy for humanity, but also a huge lesson from Nature, God, The Universe - whatever name that "something" we call. The planet is healing! Of course this will pass, but that "something" above all of us will tell when! And I hope that as a humanity we will learn a lot from this, because I am sure that if we as a humanity do not change our behavior and attitude towards Nature and Life after this - Nature will again choose a way to send us a quiet, but at the same time - THUNDEROUS message! #stayhome

[@YmustTh3w0rldG0r0und]

Too bad it couldn't stay like that. I was really enjoying the emptiness of Chicago. I had the roads and city to myself, something that I thought I would never have. Also I was very glad that Illinois was doing their part to flatten the curve. Now, no one cares and is driving around like the pandemic never even happened. At least half of us wear masks.
