An amazing sunset takes place through a gap in the trees over the SSSI land adjoining our garden. The vertical contrails are two planes that cross each other's routes around 6pm each day.
Exhaust contrails are formed by the mixing of the hot humid exhaust of the engines with cold humid surrounding air, creating long streamers of clouds. If the conditions are right then these can persist and spread. These are the most common type of contrail observed.
This is a China Airlines Boeing 777-F en route from Taipei to LAX at flight level 350 over Goleta, California.
Watching the sun set over Yorkshire a plane flew across the hills leaving a contrail glowing gold across the sky.
More explorations with the X-Pro1. Kinda loving the 50s feel to this image. I suppose the vintage camera adds to that ;)
One of a series of sky photos taken at sunset over the Cathedral City of Lincoln.

Moments after the moon was obscured by thick clouds, the sun began to rise. The cloud in the upper left of the image is a contrail created by a B744 (Boeing 747-400; jumbo jet) plane en route from Atlanta (ATL) to Istanbul, Turkey (ISL) via Turkish Airlines (THY) flight 6320 (TK6320).

Several contrails slide the sky above Estremoz while the sun is close to set above Serra d'Ossa. The ruin is the old ermitage of St. Lazarus, now a ruin and surrounded by a vineyard.
A contrail is that long thin artificial cloud that sometimes forms in the wake of aircraft. I could have photoshopped it out, but I decided it was an inherent part of the image.
