"Close,but no cigar'
No royalties likely on this image,but still a bit of fun.
I was working down the paddock,I noticed the moon looked in a good position for the '5.30' plane to go near,(When I could see the moon-so much cloud:()
I heard the plane,saw it was going to be close,but not a cross.Quickly ran up to house,and got the 50D which had 400 mm L prime attached,dialed up the settings I thought would be the best (F 6.3,iso 250,500th sec);and hoped the cloud moved a little bit.By this time I could see I would be challenged to get the two in the frame.
I thought these turned out reasonable given,the cloud and the run up the paddock.
The plane could be a Saab 340,airline unsure-The aeroplane people will figure all that out,image taken at 5.41,I think it two days after first quarter.The same moon I got the good 'moon/plane' image on.
Cheers Chris
