Thank you. A lucky shot as I was photographing the moon and the aircraft came from outside the frame and totally surprised me. You can see it's a little bit out of focus. Had I been anticipating the aircraft I would have used a higher shutter speed.

I have another one with trails. Fiery ones. I took this very early in the morning, it wasn't light yet. I was just up, look out my window and see a fiery light trail going straight up. I took pics and after downloading the pics to my Mac and zooming in I could see the plane. What puzzled me was how the vapours (as I assume they are) could be lit up like that. My theory is that they must have been hit by the sun that wasn't up yet but not far from rising? Looking at the time stamp this one was taken at exactly 6 am. Sunrise would have been at 6.13 am. So yeah, that's my theory.
