these colorful looking contrails seen in the early morning are from missles fired from the White Sands Missle Range in New Mexico

An unusual shaped contrail over Stephenville Texas in March 2009.

It was such a perfect day yesterday.

Project 365 :: Day Thirty-Two

I flew home over Joshua Tree National Park, passing through the western part of the park. I could see Twentynine Palms, the Marine Base, and the huge Mojave desert with its miles of dry land and rocks. When we turned west the clouds covered the Central Valley and I didn't see land again until we touched down in San Francisco.

I love this portrait my two-year-old took of me and an anonymous stranger... and his finger.

Seemed to work all right as a square crop.

Thought I'd share a photo I captured today. The shadow from the contrails is shooting out in front of the plane. Right place right time! :)

Caught some great contrails in the sky today

Evolution of the STS-117 noctilucent contrail as the sun got progressively lower below the horizon as seen from Satellite Beach, Florida. Some of the variations in overall picture brightness are artifacts of the particular exposure settings of the individual images.

Airplane contrails in the sky.

I wound up deleting a photo that I shouldn't have. It had what looked like contrail shadows on the ground, but I saw no contrails anywhere. I looked up and down, left and right. I decided it was just some sort of land scarring. Then we started to descend. I couldn't see the contrails because they and the airplane were all in the same (geometric) plane. When we descended, I saw these and realized my folly.

Out with the dogs yesterday and had my olympus E 300 with me. I have a russian 300 mm Tair-3s lens and mate it to the E 300 with an adapter. The olympus has a 2x conversion factor making the 300 a 600mm lens. This is an airliner at about 25000 ft. Looks like a 767 to me.

A British Airways A380 on its way from Los Angeles to London, contrails streaming about.

From an unpublished time lapse.

This contrail appears to have exploded into a cloud.

I never realized they start out as separate plumes. Thought this looked kind of cool.
