Jet at cruise altitude over my place

Hi,

got this shot a few days ago over my place.
They cruise in from NW and do an obvious turn when over
Adelaide to head either for Melb or Sydney...Peter W could tell me
probably

This is the only clear frame of about a dozen.
Handheld Pentax DSLR with my Bausch&Lomb4000 as
a telephoto lens.
He's probably 30,000ft or so.

He was still in full sunlight while we were well after sunset.

Nice shot Steve.
I sometimes hear/see these guys as they fly over me, presumably from South Africa.

Top effort to do this hand held with that much magnification.

Well done

You have done well to catch that one Steve.

All I get over my place is noisy Ultralights on Saturday Morning that wake me up.
Maybe I should try to image them seeing I have been woken up with the noise.

Lovely and sharp and good colour too.

Well done.
