Here is another “by chance” image. I was outside early evening to photograph the rising Moon with my Canon EOS, to get a daytime shot. I was using my phone as the remote shutter, so I wasn’t paying full attention while I stepped away to snap images. Normally during that time, I try to stand as still as I can, to minimize ground vibration.
It was only afterwards that I found this one image of a very high flying plane. If you zoom in, you an see quite a bit of detail, including an underside red light and the color of the top fin (I don’t know what the technical terms are).
Image settings for reference:
- f/5.6
- 1/500 sec exposure
- ISO 100
- 300mm lens
- Minor image touch-ups in PaintShop Pro
