Here are some aircraft shots from earlier today. These aircraft are multiple kilometers away and moving quite fast, so a bit blurry. Hand tracking with a telephoto lens can only get you so far.
Almost missed the WestJet 737 as it snuck in. Managed to see it glint during golden hour way off in the distance right before it went behind a tree.
Here’s another post that should’ve been made months ago, but better late than never.
These photos were all taken the same day as the lunar eclipse shots in the previous post. I had just gotten a Panasonic DMW-MA1 adapter to run all of my older Olympus lenses on my Micro 4/3 mirrorless camera.
The helicopter was a last second shot before it went behind a building so despite it being fairly close, it’s not the best quality. The shots of the various airplanes were all taken lying on my back on the living room floor for stability.
Enjoy!
I stayed up all night to get some shots of the moon during the total eclipse of March 14.
Oddly enough, the first few shots were handheld with my trusty old Olympus 300mm telephoto lens on my newer Olympus mirrorless camera, while the last 2 were using the same setup while mounted to a tripod. I think the moon was further away relative to my shooting position near the end of the eclipse and it’s speed was more noticeable as a result.
