October 5, 2011 -- Sunrise on the Kennedy Expressway

At certain times of the year sunrise occurs directly into the faces of eastbound drivers traveling on the northern section of the Kennedy Expressway in Chicago. Such was the case at 6:49 on this day.


I used my iPhone, was able to capture two images, and continued into the drive. This was taken from the inside lane. Had I been in the third lane to the left, the problem would have been greater. In this image, I modified by making it look like an old Kodachrome II print using Alien Skin Exposure 3. (Planes landing west at Ohare airport fly right down this stretch. You can see a plane coming.)
