Photographer’s Note

Trekking across space...leaving the clouds behind...departure from here.

On my day off I sometimes find pleasure sitting on my balcony staring at the sky while having a coffee.

Absolutely stunning, Bennett
Great deep blue sky makes a very good contrast with the cloud. Looks like the flight is escaping from the white flame.
Brilliant,
kenggaroo

Well as I live right near an airport this type of occurance isn't too rare for me, but you've achieved some amazing blue colour in the sky and a very dramatic cloud. Nicely done Bennett.

A dramatic image - it's as if the 747 is being spat out of the clouds! The deep blue of the sky looks great too, a nice contrast with the white clouds & jet contrails.

hey bennett

i'm not sure about the difference in height between cloud/plane but it looks like the plane is pulling the cloud. "nimbus tow" as it were. i love the deep colour you have here. sometimes, relaxing can bring as much joy as adventure. well done!

Sweet monkeys, this is an awesome shot!
I'll admit that I have a few in my personal collection that have the same flair, the same mood, and the same diagonal, but definitely not the same waft clouds!

Did you enhance the darkness in PP?
Did you notice that you plane is heading back in time and further into an insecure distance? (arrows to the right are usually for future and left for past... or so they claim).

It feels almost as if the plane was trying to flee this mass of suave danger... excellent!

Thanks for sharing this moody shot!
