Not all that memorable, but nice nonetheless...

Some nice clouds just before sunset a bit earlier tonight. Just thought I'd share it with you guys.

Doesn't it just really P!$$ you off when you get a beautiful sky like that and your miles from anything decent to put in the foreground

Despite that I think you did a good job on this one Chris though I would have prefered the plane a little higher, but I suppose you being you then moving it it is NOT an option

We have the same problem here - great skies, shame about the rooftops.

Still, what can you do?

Well, I imagine there'd be a custodial sentence for busting in on the frequency, and saying something like, "Shuttle* Nine Whisky, go around, I say again, go around, acknowledge". It might do the trick, but I'm not prepared to suffer that much for my art...

Very rarely enough traffic in the evenings for that sort of thing to be common without Air Traffic Control intervention, or thunderstorms near Heathrow.

Or did you mean PhotoShop?

Hi ChrisA,

After sowing your very good sun falling work, immediately remembered an image from our free of air traffic conflicted skies, I caught past year. But…

Our big problem here (in zafra time) is the great atmosphere contamination caused by the burning of the sugar “cañaveral”. You can see the smoke in the air around the sun halo.
