Thank you to fellow Flickr member DigitalAnthill for uploading this to reddit.com yesterday and getting me some much appreciated publicity. Rob, I owe you one.
An A380 (or perhaps a 747) jets into the sky above Guernsey on a beautifully clear April day. I reckon this one's worth viewing large ;-)
We've had some more stunning weather down here in the channel islands, and amazingly clear skies too. I've taken a few photos of planes before, but never had the clarity I've got here, so there must be something particularly clear about the air today.
Taken with a Sony A33 and Minolta 70-300mm at the long end. No photoshopped elements, just a monochrome conversion and a bit of work on the contrast.
Initially I thought this was a 747, but it's got the characteristic A380 'bulge' in the centre. Any alternative suggestions are welcome!
