We don’t often get planes overhead here (very different from where we used to live when we were only 8 miles from Stansted Airport). This United Airlines plane caught my eye as it was heading straight in front of the rising moon. I rushed to get my camera to catch
This was quite fun, using the defraction of an image in a water bubble to produce this shot. It only took 102 shots to get that just about central! Should have got the tripod out instead of doing it handheld. There’s a second version below that is a bit more
