Something fun to play with on a rainy afternoon...

A Martinair Md-11 on short final for runway 06 during a very humid morning. The MD-11 is the airliner that is most likely to create these sort of scenes. That is a result of it's very large flaps sections and winglets

On the first domestic flight by Norwegian Air Shuttle in Spain (BTW, I really really miss my Nokia Lumia 930, you get spoiled and it is easy to forget how a lousy cellphone cam feels like when you get home)

A southbound sand train has a clear signal at North Weyawega as a dying storm approaches...I was out trying to get lightning shots but the line fell apart as it got close. I was left scrambling to find foreground interest as my original locations wouldn't work...then I realized I was close to this control point. The new LED signals that CN has been installing are definitely bright- I knew they were bright from the locomotive but didn't expect them to show up so well in photos.

A riot of color in the sky....I'm sort of running out of adjectives to use to describe these scenes...everything here was naked-eye visible, albeit a bit dimmer than the camera sensor saw it.

Also of note in this shot is The Andromeda Galaxy (top, right of center) and The Pleiades (just above the horizon, right of center). The orange at lower right is light pollution, probably Wanipigow on the other side of Lake Winnipeg.

As our 737 banked left over Lake Ontario now heading east out of Pearson Airport the sun catches one of the winglets. The United States appears not that far in the distance on the other side of the lake.

Graceful curved winglet on a Qantas plane parked at the Adelaide Airport.

 

Wingtip devices increase the lift generated at the wingtip (by smoothing the airflow across the upper wing near the tip) and reduce the lift-induced drag caused by wingtip vortices, improving lift-to-drag ratio. This increases fuel efficiency in powered aircraft and increases cross-country speed in gliders, in both cases increasing range

Some weird stuff going on during a fantastic substorm. Near Tigerton, WI 9/1/16.

Hard to believe this cell was severe-warned and looking great on radar not 20 minutes earlier. This is looking towards the backside of it as it raced away over western Winnebago County. Near Utica, WI May 17, 2017.

It all came together last night for a fabulous aurora display...included some rare pinks across the bottom (showing kind of orange in the image) and lots of motion. Definitely one worth staying out all night for.
