Just the moon



As I was leaving for the school run, I saw the vapour trail heading for a close pass... Dashed in, nearly knocking over the youngest in the process,  to grab the camera

Very nice John. There's something eye-catching about the Moon against a blue sky. I like the portrait shot with the Moon and plane. Thanks for including the camera settings on the images.  Smiley

Thanks Martin. I'm a member of a dedicated photo forum, and they always want the exif data. For some reason I'm unable to fathom, photobucket always strips the exif from the image, so I've taken to embedding it in the border for all my images.
