29/06/2015; Had a feeling when I was still at home that the sunset could become nice this evening. My feeling wasn't wrong there. :)
Lines in the sky "drawn" by airplanes (contrails) "paint" the sky along with regular clouds in the distance.
I made this time stack by merging 304 photos into one image.
Instead of sitting reading camera magazines, and how others have gone out and done this and that, I went out, just 5 minutes from the house, Penicuik House estate. the high pond is always worth a wander around, the pond had frozen over, the sun was setting behind the trees, then the vapor trails of two aircraft heading west. appeared. No faffing about with settings, Had camera already set on AP, a wee crop, Popped it through Nik Efex detail extractor to pull more detail out of the frozen ice and tree branches.
Thanks for viewing.
Aircraft condensation trails (contrails) that have persisted for at least 10 minutes will be given the name of the genus, Cirrus, followed only by the special cloud name “homogenitus”, so a contrail will be known only as Cirrus homogenitus. As new, or recently formed aircraft condensation trails may undergo a fairly rapid state of change and may display a variety of transient shapes, no species, varieties or supplementary features will be applied to the name.

I saw this contrail in the evening sky.

I set myself a challenge to take some interesting images on my doorstep, well within a 15 mins walk of my house.
This image is simple as they come, but it works for me. I rotated the image in post so the contrail is exactly 45 degrees. The aircraft is placed on the rule of thirds.
A contrail interlude. Cirrus aviaticus: see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrail
