One thing I've noticed about windshield photography: if your camera is of the 'auto-focus' variety, it will focus on the windshield and not what is behind it.
If the scene is very bright, the camera will use a smaller f-stop. This provides more depth of field, lessening the problem, but if the light level is lower, the result will be a picture of what I see when I try to drive without my glasses: a great view of your bug collection.
I've lived here on The Poor Farm most of my life. Located in western Kansas, where the wind blows - supposedly the Dodge City weather station at the airport has the highest average wind speed in the CONUS. It would be the "sticks" out here if there were any trees, but I like it. I really like the spring - when it is calm, and the smell of the fresh wheat and other plants fill the air with a unique "green" smell. My real love is the fall, when the air is cooling and calm, when you breath the air it is like a drink of cool water. Speaking of cool water, my well produces some mighty good tasting stuff. It is hard water for sure - all the faucets have lime on them, but I'll take it over soft mossy smelling reservoir water from the city any day.

No, but I can identify a mass bug suicide when I see one. ;P
I'm trying to get the complete set.
The Big O has a skyline only in its inhabitant's imaginations. I-29?
ptg - yes, southbound.
Living in NW Iowa I rarely get that close to downtown Omaha. But now I'm inspired to try more windshield pics.

Then, with cell phone cameras, you get those high quality lenses.
