20210503_7087_7D2-70 Contrail at sunrise
At least 14 minutes prior to sunrise flight NZ680 (A320 ZK-OXD, Dunedin to Wellington) passed overhead at 37,000 feet.
Later on I looked an the trail north of Pegasus Bay was distorted by high level wind,
The mountains at bottom left are north of Kaikoura, about 160km as the gull flies!
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.
In Kansas we had a rash of sundogs over about 10 days. I do not recall so many in such a short time. I would have to count but I seldom get more chances than once or twice a year. Earlier this year I photographed a sun "halo". Perhaps the clouds are changing. I cannot help but think so many contrails add something to the high altitude atmosphere.

The big freeze continues and walking conditions are very tricky with frozen snow and ice on the pavements and paths. At least we had a beautiful blue sky for a change when I took this shot!

A nifty contrail pattern from today's west Georgia sky. The framing of trees called out for a photo.

Cheyenne, Wyoming is pretty much the center of the cross-country flyovers. As a result, contrails can rule of skies when the temperatures at flight level are exceptionally cold as was the case this particular morning.
Sometimes, contrails can be the source of cirrus clouds as suggested in this image.

A brilliantly sunny, cold winter day:)
Jets are back in numbers after lockdown. This contrail come from a transatlantic flight from the US to Europe. The contrail which dropped from over 20000 feet to a few hundred feet is background for a Kite hunting for prey.
It was fun to follow the advancement of the contrail in the sky as the distorted reflection raced (obviously) at the same speed on a trajectory to meet the sky contrail......
Boring skies lately so I decided to attempt a flyover capture. Since contrails were abundant this morning, I used my Nikon P950 at full zoom (2000mm or 83x optical magnification). With these jets flying at 6 miles per minute at +35,000 feet altitude, getting a good shot is a lot harder than you'd think.
Anyway, this was my first attempt at this sort of photography. My next challenge will be at low sun angle.
A lot of contrails made up the majority of this sunset, made possible in a regime of more upper air moisture coming off the Pacific Ocean.

Contrails at sunrise over Laratinga Wetlands, South Australia.
The two cloud formations on the right may also have been contrails earlier on in the morning and have since dispersed.
A few more con trails are being seen again over Bangkok for the first time in 18 months. What else you might imagine is up to you.
Apparently, vapour trails left by aircraft now have a latin name, Cirrus homogenitus contrails, and recognition in the cloud atlas - here they are over Crummock water - all the clouds here are thus formed in various stages of dispersion.

I don't post my contrail shots because the quality is not really the best, but this one managed to be uploaded! Here's a TAP A340 flying from Lisbon to Rio de Janeiro as TAP 73.
Seen here over Fortaleza, cruising at FL380. I wish I had a lens with more zoom range, to bring it even closer! Or even better: a superzoom camera! :)

imagine what this picture would have been like if i ever got around to practicing with the BGC?

Being located right on the flight route between the Middle East & Asia and London Heathrow, the sky above the Westernscheldt is usually crisscrossed by countless contrails at sunrise. Not so this year; these were actually the first and only ones I had seen in a long time ... ;-((

Omdat het precies op de vliegroute tussen het Midden-Oosten & Azië en Londen-Heathrow ligt, wordt de lucht boven de Westerschelde bij zonsopgang meestal doorkruist door talloze contrails. Dit jaar niet zo; dit waren eigenlijk de eerste en enige die ik in lange tijd had gezien
