Thanks!!

I could barely see the shot as I was looking up and almost into the sun, I could tell I had gotten the jet stream but not that the branch was in the shot until I got home.

I like how it looks like the plane is heading to the branch.

I think I could underexpose some of these shots a bit. I did all of them in manual exposure so was shooting when the camera said I was at the right settings. I think though if I dialed back on either the ISO or the apeture to make them a bit darker it would look better, like the one with the basket how the blue in the sky in the background disappears to white. That doesn't look as good as it could.

Thanks!!

I find it interesting the third one is getting the most feedback. I guess that is a perspective people don't shoot a lot.
