6/13 - Going Home SP

Interstate I-90 West of Chicago IL view map

I shot this on the way to the airport in rush hour Chicago traffic. For those who have not tried, it
is much more difficult than it looks. I felt bad about shooting and driving until I got passed by a
girl who was driving and typing a message on her Blackberry. At least I could keep my eyes on the
road while I shot and get something. She was reading more than driving.

Edit: To answer Scott's question below..no, I was not on the phone while doing this. I figured that
driving and shooting at once was plenty. Even if I was only doing 5-10mph at the time.

Excellent capture, sir!
Is that an ear piece for a phone headset I see? Driving, talking on the phone, AND shooting a photo? I'm not sure if that really trumps the Blackberry girl or not. ;-)
