Whow! real nice shot, nice camera as well.
My Minox GT-E wouldn't have done any better...

Looks fairly recent with plenty of snow everywhere.
Did you take it?

Looks like Microsoft Flight Simulator after taking off from Meigs field ;-)

Yeah that would have to be a simulator since Mayor Daley closed down Meigs field in the middle of the night last year :-)

That very well could be the couple of inches of snow we got here last night.

Do you know what EXIF is? :-) The picture was taken with a Canon S50 with 1/1000 shutter speed, aperture 4.0 on November, 25 at 11:44am. I was not over Chicago at that time.

Do you see me waving out the window?

Were you working downtown today, Ed? ;-)

Tim Latta, 2004-12-02

the picture was taken on the 25th ... :)

Nice shot (have seen more dirt on airplane windows yet). I took it into the digital darkroom and gave it a 5-minutes-makeup (spherical and perspective distortions removed, multiplication layer for increased contrasts added, color balance for more natural colors adjusted). This is the result (877 kB).
