IBE's "Mariano Benlliure" (EC-IZX, an A346) is captured (in this snap taken thru a terminal window) as it taxies away from the International Terminal at O'Hare.

I was offered the opportunity to step outside (to stand by that railing) to take my pics but I simply had too much lens. If I had accepted, it meant I would have been closer and that bird was so long I would not have been able to get it all in the shot as it went by. So I declined and stayed inside the terminal. As is obvious, I did get it all in. However, the window was tinted AND there was also a dimly lit area behind me that reflected in the window, so this was an instance when either choice offered both an advantage and a disadvantage.
