A pair of videographers has published a new love-letter to Chicago's skies and landmarks in all their beautiful, late-summer glory.

Rick Wayne and Brad Johnson, the team behind Underscore Films, shot and edited this soaring footage of Chicago's architecture, parks and lakefront just before moving to the West Coast last month. As the three-minute film attests, they're already "Homesick for Chicago."

The team wrote on YouTube:

It’s hard to say goodbye to someone you love but nothing can prepare you to say goodbye to your city. We were born here, had our hearts broken then mended and we grew up into business men. Chicago is something you have to let into your soul to understand. Although our careers lead us out west to Los Angeles, our hearts will forever remain in the Windy City.
