kemper Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 Was out this morning before sun up washing some baits, and I snapped a few shots of the sunrise with my iPhone. This was the best of the batch, it's a little grainy because it's only a cell camera after all but what caught my eye was the streak in the top left corner. Shooting star? Yes/No? Cheers.

danc Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 How long was the exposure? Looks like a commercial jet vapour trail to me. It's lit up from the sun coming over the horizen. I doubt if something as high as a shooting star would light up from the sun like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod Caster Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 I'll say commercial jet. Is that a new moon on the far right side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillM Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 That seems awful vertical for an airplane... Kemper, if you can tell us the iso/exposure time it will be very easy to figure out if that's a plane or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishfield Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 That's not vertical... flying level by the looks of it.. around 18,000 feet. ;O) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kemper, if you can tell us the iso/exposure time it will be very easy to figure out if that's a plane or not. Looks pretty horizontal from my view Bill. Commercial jet imho. Also, the fading trail is a dead give away. I don't know if seeing a jet and a vapour trail is something rare in Southern Ontario, but up here we see them dozens of times a day, if you're looking for them.

mcdougy Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 (edited) Is that Alcatraz in the middle? Was it a cold swim? Where the hell did the bridge go? Edited March 10, 2013 by mcdougy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
